Aims of the Cluster Approach
• High standards of predictability, accountability and partnership in all sectors or areas of activity
• Responsibility to include all humanitarian partners
• More strategic and inclusive responses
• Better prioritization of available resources
• Strengthening humanitarian response

What is a Cluster?
• A group of organizations providing services within the same ‘theme’, e.g. health or protection with ONE lead
• The cluster ensures overall inclusion of all partners, who can then divide into working or thematic groups (e.g. child protection or gender)
• Ensures cross-fertilization between organizations working within same ‘theme’ despite different focus (e.g. child protection and SGBV)
• Ensures a collective agreement and planning for the overall direction of the response within a given ‘theme’
• Ensures a needs rather than capacity driven response What does this mean?

• Human Rights
• Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR)

Camp Coordination Camp Management
At the global level, CCCM is co-chaired by:• UNHCR for conflict-induced IDPs• IOM for natural disaster-induced IDPs
“…. the CCCM cluster applies to all types of communal shelter including:• Camp and camp-like situations • Settlements • Sites • Collective centres existing buildings hosting displaced persons” www.humanitarian reform.org

Early Recovery
What is Early Recovery?
• Recovery that starts early, at onset of crisis
• Application of development principles to humanitarian situations
• Establishes the foundations of longer-term recovery
• Generates/reinforces nationally owned processes for post-crisis recovery
“Early Recovery encompasses the restoration of basic services, livelihoods, shelter, governance, security and the rule of law, environment and social dimensions, including the reintegration of displaced populations. It stabilizes human security and addresses underlying risks that contributed to the crisis.”

2. Collect/share information & assets
3. Coordinate port & corridor movements to reduce congestion
4. Provide details of transporters and rough indication of market rates
5. Provide guidance on customs issues
6. Provide information on equipment and/or relief items suppliers

Three possible elements to activate the cluster approach:
• In response to dramatic events or disasters• To fill major gaps in humanitarian needs• By initiative and guidance of the concerned
HC/RCs in consultation with the Country Team members
