20 3. organization of the handbook This handbook consists of 3 parts. Part 1 - International laws applicable in emergencies Part 1 summarizes the nature and the purpose of the various sources upon which international texts are based (mainly human rights law, International Humanitarian Law and international criminal law) used throughout this document to define the right to water and sanitation. Without any pretensions to being exhaustive, this chapter aims at providing humanitarian actors with a starting point towards understanding this document per se. The overall objective of Part 1 is, therefore, to define the nature of these legislative texts and attempt to explain how they work in practice. c Readers familiar with international law and its rules and regulations can directly go to Parts 2 and 3. Part 2 - Definition of the human right to water and sanitation in emergencies Part 2 outlines those sources of law that can be called on to define the right to water and sanitation in emergency situations. In more concrete terms, the link between this right and the whole spectrum of human rights, General Comment 15, International Humanitarian Law, national legislation and the operational guidelines developed and used by humanitarian agencies in their daily work will be explored. Part 3 - Advocacy on the right to water in emergencies Part 3 explains how the framework of the right to water and sanitation can be used to develop rightsbased advocacy in situations of emergency. To this end, a methodology for the preparation of advocacy activities is proposed, as well as examples of such activities and action that can be developed. Feedback on this Handbook and examples of field practices on the right to water and sanitation in emergencies are welcome at any time.
