LLA Newsletter – Spring 2022 Edition
Welcome to the first LLA newsletter of 2022.
After the events of the past couple of years, we know how hard Humanitarians have been working to provide relief and logistical support to those in need. Whether that is by assisting with vaccination efforts, or on the frontline in warzones and areas hit by natural and manmade disasters, the Humanitarian community continues to be at the forefront.
Sadly, as we began 2022, we did so with yet another conflict. The invasion of Ukraine has been both shocking and upsetting to witness from afar, but nothing compared to the very real consequences of those who live in the country, many of whom have had to flee and seek refuge elsewhere. We offer our full support to the Ukrainian people, as well as to those who are still in Ukraine and those who are helping others in the country.
If you want to read more about how the Humanitarian community is assisting the people of Ukraine, we encourage people to read reliable sources of information and avoid the spread of misinformation.?This article from ICRC?about international humanitarian law is a helpful piece that explains more about the legal and moral obligations.?And this article from the BBC?explains why Red Cross organisations are required to remain impartial during conflict in order to most effectively provide assistance to those most in need.
We also know that Ukraine is not the only country to be affected by war and we send our sincere thoughts to those who are affected all over the world, including in Yemen and Afghanistan.
We are always so happy and honoured to receive feedback from our students and graduates, especially as they come to the end of their successful journey with us. And particularly so during the past few months, which we know have been especially difficult for our students as they worked for NGOs in response to both the pandemic and other natural and manmade disasters.
Here’s just a few of our favourite testimonials from 2021.
Humanitarian Logistics Certification Programme (HLCP) update
Formed in 2006, the Fritz Institute-CILT Humanitarian Logistics Certification Programmes have provided Logisticians with the skills, knowledge and competency required to effectively deliver humanitarian aid and logistical support to those most in need.

Additional dates added for Humanitarian Essentials Logistics Module (HELM) Events in 2022
With the easing of restrictions in 2021, it was great to be able to deliver our face-to-face training events again. Our tutor Haydn Sandvig visited Kenya to deliver back-to-back events, as well as delivering our first ever visit to Nepal, which was a huge success. We were delighted to receive this feedback from Nirpa Dhami, who attended our session in Nepal:
As we continue to plan our schedule for 2022 for our Humanitarian Essentials Logistics Module (HELM) events, we have added new locations and are delighted to be visiting Bangladesh and Cambodia for the first time!
Interested in knowing more about what happens during our HELM training events? Delivered in locations across Africa, these events have helped hundreds of Humanitarian Logisticians become more effective and efficient.
