The Cross Cutting Issues Good Practice Guidelines are a series of 8 Guidelines (and an introduction) that can be used for briefings and field reference.
These guidelines give a Tearfund Disaster Management Team (DMT) perspective on the topic and are intended to be simple and user friendly guides that provide practical information for practitioners in the field.
All the topics are “cross cutting priorities” for Tearfund DMT, which need to be considered in every project we do. These “cross cutting priorities” are not new specialisms on top of our sector specialisms rather they are about the way we carry out our sector projects to ensure they appropriately and effectively meet the needs of our beneficiaries.
