All In Diary - supporting website
A practical tool for field based humanitarian workers
Home Page                        

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.
