The All In Diary is designed for use in disaster situations, and is specifically aimed at field based humanitarian workers in international and local NGOs.
It aims to improve the quality and appropriateness of relief work through:
- increasing awareness of good humanitarian practice
- providing easy and timely access to relevant information and resources
- facilitating organisational learning and programme continuity
What is it?
The All In Diary consists of:
- a personal organiser with 2008 diary pages and integrated information pages covering the topics in the adjoining column.
- a CD Rom with the information pages and additional resources which are included on this website.
- this website which offers free downloadable versions of each of the pages from the All In Diary, and up-to-date links to recommended practical resources.

The All In Diary is a
not-for-profit project.
______________________
The concept has been devised and developed on a voluntary basis by
Linda Richardson and Gill Price.
In an initial 6 month trial from July to December 2007, almost 400 All In Diaries have been distributed to over 25 countries, to a wide range of organisations, agencies and individuals, both local and international.
A full, independent evaluation of this initial 6 month trial has been completed and a summary is available on this website.
Our next steps are to secure funding to trial the printing and distribution of the All In Diary in a disaster situation.
All funds generated to date have been used to cover the costs of production, distribution and evaluation of the diary.
No funds have been used for administrative purposes and the on-going development is continuing on a voluntary basis.
