Trust is at the heart of humanitarian action. It is a core tenet to the relationships humanitarian organisations build with the local communities in which their actions are rooted, as well as with donors, both to whom they are accountable.

Deepened trust is a result of an organisation's approach to creating accountability is twofold: downward, to local communities, and upward to donors, governments, boards and management. This accountability calls for organisations to ensure that communities affected by crises are not harmed by the conduct or misconduct of humanitarian organizations and that donor funds are recorded and used in a transparent manner.
