THE YOUNG HUMANITARIANS HANDBOOK
March 2025
Are you a Young Humanitarian?
The Young Humanitarians Handbook is Designed for You!!!
The Young Humanitarian Handbook is designed for all young people engaged or interested in humanitarian work, providing a clear, step-by-step approach to help you navigate the sector.
It answers four key questions that every young humanitarian may ask:
• How can I deliver services to those most in need?
• How can I make my voice heard in decision-making?
• How and where can I grow my skills and knowledge?
• How do I access the resources I need?
Packed with practical tips, self-care advice, and inspiring stories from young humanitarians around the world, the handbook is your go-to resource, whether you're new to humanitarian action or already involved. It supports the implementation of the IASC Guidelines on Working with Young People in Humanitarian Action.
