Guidance Environment Marker HRP (2013)

Environment Marker

Each humanitarian project should identify its potential impact on the local environment following international guidelines, and address it in a manner which is tailored to Sudan.

Through simple coding A, B and C with a plus sign (+) for adequate mitigation measures, the environment marker tracks a project’s expected impact on environment, and whether recommended actions such as environment assessments and mitigation have been undertaken. The tool is to be seen as a possibility to ensure that any negative impact on the local environment of a humanitarian project is reduced as much as possible.
