Co-ordination Hub- An Operating Framework

Facts

• Several players in the AO– CTF (Coalition forces)– Non-Coalition forces– UN, NGOs, IOs, etc.

• MNF SOP does not have a framework for Coalition Forces, Non-Coalition Forces and Civilian Organisations working together.

• Many IOs / NGOs will not necessarily come to a military coordination center of any sort as they:– View military support as an obstacle to their operations;

– May have no awareness of the military aspects of the situation*;

– May not see a need for any military support in their operations*.

Principles Applied in Peace Operations.(MNF SOP p. B7 B-13)

1. Continual military interaction with a wide variety of IOs and NGOs will

make coordination of their activities difficult and challenging.

2. Unity of effort recognizes the need for a coherent approach to a

common objective between the various military and civilian components of

the PO.

3. Coordination with civilian agencies is facilitated by dialogue and

consensus building and not by command.

4. Unity of effort can best be achieved by the development of a

multifunctional multi-organizational planning approach.

5. Unity of effort at the strategic level requires close liaison between the

Supported Strategic Commander / Lead Nation National Authorities and

the UN Security Council.

6. Unity of effort at the operational and tactical levels requires close and

frequent liaison between the military and civilian components of the PO.

The Need to for Coordination Hub

Military• Anticipate requests for

assistance (support and protection)

• Non-mil activities should be integrated, or at least deconflicted, with CTF operations

Non-Military

• Awareness of the military aspects of the situation

• Not necessarily come to a military coordination center

Principal Considerations

• One stop center for all stakeholders• Facilitate quicker decision-making &

Networked to enhance information sharing• Strives for “win-win” situation; avoiding

military domination; striving to enhance cooperation, coordination & UNITY OF EFFORT

• Seamless transition to commensurate with phases of operations

Coordination Hub Concept

• The Coordination Hub is a forum that builds upon the following guiding principles:

• Sharing, co-ordination of efforts• One stop center where the military, NGOs, and Humanitarian

Organizations and beneficiaries of humanitarian activities coordinate hence establishing mutual support.

• Stakeholders are involved in planning hence there is consensus building, partnership creation leading to co-ownership and coherence of plans.

• A Coordination Hub is a critical enabler for achieving coordinated and unified operations among the players in the Theater of Operations.

• A Coordination Hub is normally used to facilitate coordination, exchange of information, planning, and preparation of CTF and other forces to support humanitarian organizations’ activities.

• The composition of the Coordination Hub comprises staff of C3, C5 and C7 (CCC and CMOC) and UN Agencies, IOs, NGOs and beneficiaries.

Potential Shortcomings

• More risk of civilian inputs– Cannot compromise military requirements– Implication to Ops critical

• Risk of much flexibility– Exercise control measures?

• Too many non-military entities– Lead agencies and credible NGOs only?
