In 2017, the IASC Principals endorsed a revised version of the AAP, titled Commitments on Accountability to Affected People and Protection from Sexual Exploitation and Abuse (CAAP and PSEA). The revision took account of new guidance on humanitarian policy, including the Core Humanitarian Standardsand the outcomes of the World Humanitarian Summit and the Grand Bargain.72
The revised CAAP places a strong emphasis on collective accountability. Humanitarian actors are expected to act singly andtogether to enhance and integrate AAP in their responses. Their role is central. Annex 7 explains how to ensure inclusion of persons with disabilities with respect to the four commitments.
