Terms and Conditions
These Terms and Conditions govern access to and use of the Humanitarian Guild website, services, and recognition processes.
​
By accessing this website or engaging with the Guild in any capacity, you agree to these Terms.
Nature of the Humanitarian Guild
The Humanitarian Guild is a professional body that recognises individuals whose work affects people and communities in humanitarian and emergency contexts.
​
The Guild is not:
-
a training provider
-
an accrediting or licensing authority
-
a regulatory body
-
an employer or deploying organisation
Recognition reflects professional standing assessed against published standards and does not confer authority, mandate, or endorsement.
Recognition and discretion
All recognition and credential awards are granted at the discretion of the Guild. There is no automatic entitlement to recognition. Submission of an application or payment of any fee does not guarantee recognition.
The Guild reserves the right to:
-
decline, suspend, or withdraw recognition
-
review recognition periodically
-
amend credential status where standards are no longer met
Decisions are made in accordance with published standards and applicable policies.
Fees
Fees charged by the Guild relate to assessment, administration, record-keeping, and the maintenance of recognised standing.
Fees:
-
do not guarantee recognition
-
are not refundable except where required by law
-
may change from time to time
Current fees, where applicable, are communicated at the time of application.
Verification
The Guild may provide independent verification of recognised standing to appropriate parties.
Verification confirms credential status at a point in time only.
Verification does not constitute endorsement, certification, or professional assurance.
The Guild does not maintain a public directory of recognised individuals.
Administration and management
The Humanitarian Guild is administered by a management entity that provides operational, administrative, and secretariat services on behalf of the Guild.
​
These services may include:
-
processing applications
-
maintaining records
-
managing verification requests
-
supporting standards and review processes
Recognition decisions are made in accordance with published standards, independent of administrative or commercial arrangements.
​
Administrative, financial, and secretariat services for the Guild are provided by Future Leaders Academy Pty Ltd (ACN [insert]), acting as the Guild’s management company.
​
All fees are payable to Future Leaders Academy Pty Ltd in its capacity as service provider.
Liability and reliance
Recognition by the Guild does not replace organisational due diligence, professional supervision, or independent assessment.
​
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Guild disclaims liability for:
-
actions taken by recognised individuals
-
reliance placed on recognition by third parties
-
outcomes arising from professional or operational decisions
