HLA IS SUPPORTED BY THE CHARTERED INSTITUTE OF LOGISTICS AND TRANSPORT

Following initial support for the HLA from the Fritz Institute in the United States, The Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport in the UK (CILT) is providing the association with a temporary home.  This will enable HLA to create procedures, standards and processes, grow its membership, and thrive in the future.  CILT chief executive Steve Agg said ‘I am delighted with this new partnership.  HLA will be given all the support required to set up and grow as a body.  We have had an excellent working relationship with the Fritz Institute and are pleased that this link with the humanitarian logistics sector will be strengthened by these new arrangements.’

George_Fenton

I have been involved for most of my career in humanitarian logistics, a sector which is often under-valued within the Aid community. The HLA aims to change that perception and so your membership and active participation is extremely important to enable us to develop the Association to support you..."
