This session will orient participants in the overall event, explaining what will happen, when and how.

Objectives

By the end of this session, participants will be able to:

As the roles of humanitarian actors and local authorities continue to evolve, CCCM’s framework has always provided an adaptable division of responsibilities to be applied based on the capacities of stakeholders in different settings. In this session we will examine, does the CCCM “flexible framework” go far enough, or is more work needed on localization including on preparedness actions, for CCCM to provide the necessary support required to adapt to the needs of governments, national NGOs and community structures?

What came first: Participation or Accountability? The terms accountability and participation are often used interchangeably, but should they be? Where do community engagement, communicating with communities and inclusion come in?

Over the years, the roles in which CCCM and CCCM approaches can be applied in urban and out-of-camp settings have become increasingly prominent.

Without proper transition or exit plan, both camps and clusters can (and often do) continue to exist in limbo until the next crisis reoccurs in the same location and setting. Even when planning is carried out and invested in, challenges are inevitable when it comes to implementation.

This panel discussion asks: Do we, as humanitarian actors, startup system that is geared too heavily towards our own rulebook? Do we make it more difficult than it should be to handover to local actors? Is the “transition” environment the right time to ask these questions?

Can the physical/congestion challenges in displacement sites be overcome through social behavioural changes in preparedness and response to COVID-19? Today’s Q&A is with colleagues working in health, WASH, site planning and camp management. The session invites participants to reflect on lessons learned and best practices that are currently in place in displacement sites to minimize risks and mitigate community transmission of the pandemic.

Following the development, consultation and verification process carried out for the Minimum Standards in Camp Management over the last 3 years, this session will help participants not familiar with the document learn how to operationalize it in a different context and provide breakout sessions on specific actions to included it on other settings such as transit centers and out of camp operations.

By the end of this session, participants will have:

In this session, participants will be consulted on the design of the CCCM Cluster strategy. This will share progress to date and gain valuable and diverse inputs to shape the design going forward.
