Coordination Workshop Briefing Paper
This briefing paper is part of an ongoing research initiative on humanitarian coordination.
It outlines key issues and questions related to the participation of national actors in humanitarian coordination, one of the four themes that will be discussed at ALNAP’s meeting ‘Working Together to Improve Humanitarian Coordination’ in London on 30 June to 1 July 2016. In particular, it will concentrate on national participation within the Inter-Agency Standing Committee (IASC) coordination mechanism (Clusters, inter-Cluster and humanitarian country teams, or HCTs).
Alongside this paper, ALNAP has also produced additional materials for background context: a video (see below) and a recording of a webinar on the same topic, which can be accessed at www.alnap.org/coordmeeting.
