Protection, Early Recovery and CCCM Uganda
Response
UGANDA CONTEXT

• Conflict Displacement Crisis in Northern Uganda
  (chronic conflict with
• regional implications)
• Length and scale of displacement (lack of host
  communities)
• Natural Disasters
• Fragile Peace Agreement
• Peace, Recovery And Development Plan
• Increased Security and Freedom of Movement but
  risk of forced return
• Lack of access to basic services
• Transition to Recovery/Remaining humanitarian
  needs
• Protection concerns

GLOBAL CLUSTER RESPONSE AND RELEVANCE

• KEY AREAS
• The three clusters will focus on the following
  themes at the core of global clusters
• I. Standard setting, tools development
• II. Surge capacity / capacity building
• III. Partnerships and Coordination

GLOBAL CLUSTER RESPONSE AND RELEVANCE

• STANDARD SETTING / TOOLS DEVELOPMENT
• Development and support in application of the
  Framework for Durable Solutions
• Technical support in the development of the
  national CCCM strategy
• Information management data collection and
  analysis tool, with mapping of camps and areas of
  return, covering humanitarian services and gaps
  (See map next slide)
• Technical support for development of data
  collection and analysis tool for GBV programming
  (UNSC Res 1820).
• Early Recovery strategic planning (needs
  assessments, strategic framework, local level ER
  plans for districts) linked to Peace Recovery and
  Development Plan (PRDP) - integration of
  cross-cutting issues

GLOBAL CLUSTER RESPONSE AND RELEVANCE

• SURGE CAPACITY / CAPACITY BUILDING
• PROCAP deployment and training
• Protection cluster training of inter-agency staff
  
• CCCM training at 3 levels national, regional
  and global specific training for CCCM cluster
  lead and inter-agency field staff
• Inter-agency support missions and deployment of
  ER staff
• All three clusters supported Uganda inter-agency
  senior staff attending cluster-sector lead
  training

GLOBAL CLUSTER RESPONSE AND RELEVANCE

• PARTNERSHIPS AND COORDINATION
• PCWG and HelpAge International support
  strengthened protection of older persons
• CCCM cooperation with CARE International for camp
  closure pilot project in Lira district, used as
  guidance for other districts and used at global
  level to provide best practice for similar IDP
  situations
• Inter-agency review of GBV and CP Area of
  Responsibility under the Protection Cluster.
• Strengthened and more inclusive ER coordination
  mechanisms

GLOBAL RESPONSE AND RELEVANCE

• CHALLENGES
• Pilots are things you learn from - Cluster
  approach activated in Uganda, while global
  clusters were still evolving.
• Challenge and complexity of managing a
  two-pronged approach that involves both
  mainstreaming and stand alone interventions for
  all these three clusters which are cross-cutting
  
• Defining agency-specific disengagement criteria
  versus cluster closure
• Mainstreaming of humanitarian strategies and
  coordination structures into national structures
  
• Government ownership and capacity to lead the
  transition
