The book serves as a common basis for teaching at all NOHA universities and aims at imparting the basic knowledge and skills needed to excel in a complex interdisciplinary and international learning context. It provides in-depth information on key international humanitarian principles and values, professional codes of conduct, and the commitment to their implementation in practice.

It may also serve as an introduction to anyone with an interest in understanding the numerous and inter-linked facets of humanitarian action.
