MAIN REQUIREMENTS

With the signature of the Partenrship Certificate/Agreement, the Partner commits to publicise the relevance and impact of Union funded humanitarian aid, both in the European Union and in third countries where Union funded actions are carried out.

Humanitarian Partners receiving EU support have a contractual obligation to provide visibility to and communicate about the EU humanitarian assistance they receive.

The aim of Partners’ visibility and communication activities about EU-funded projects and actions is to:

• ensure public awareness of how the EU is helping;

• provide accountability as to where the funding is going;

• foster continued strong support for humanitarian aid among key  stakeholders and the general public.

All DG ECHO Partners have a contractual obligation to provide standard visibility of the EU as a donor.

Partners must ensure equal treatment between the EU, and (if applicable) other donors in their visibility and communication activities.

In addition to standard visibility, partners can opt for “above-standard visibility” Activities (Section 12.2 of the e-Single Form).
