Launching the Universal Logistics Standards Handbook

April 2021


We are very happy to share with you the upcoming launch of the final version of the ULS Handbook. During the past year, we have collected the feedback of hundreds of practitioners in the field of humanitarian aid and logistics. This helped us to shape the standards so they can be used by all actors involved in the humanitarian response.

Several organizations across the world have participated in the piloting phase, providing and invaluable feedback on the implementation of the standards, which have helped to refine them in order to come up with the final version.

In order to share with you the latest information about the piloting as well as the one gathered at the inception of the project, we have organized a series of events, including three webinars on English, French, and Spanish, as well as a session hosted by the Logistics Cluster Partner Forum in the framework of the Humanitarian Networks and Partnerships Weeks 2021.
