WHAT IS COMMUNITY-BASED PROTECTION?
QUESTIONS & FEEDBACK
LINK TO INTEGRATED ToC
Community-based protection is a process that puts the capacities, agency, rights and dignity of communities at the centre of programming. It is a systematic and continuous process of engaging communities as analysts, evaluators and implementers in their own protection.
- The presence of COVID-19 in conflict zones raises significant protection concerns. Protection space is diminishing.
- Existing vulnerabilities are likely to be exacerbated
- Vulnerable populations may be neglected, stigmatized, and face discrimination and difficulties in accessing services
- Violence is increasing (GBV, IPV, abuse of power)
- Existing community relationships
- Need to have existing strong relationships with community structures, including representatives of different age, gender and diversity groups
- Staff need to have developed "soft skills" (communication, facilitation, PFA, active listening)
- Cross-sectoral skill sets, can be any staff and not just stand-alone protection teams
- Would this approach work in your CO?
- What components would be easily integrated into existing programming?
- Do you have existing resources that can be applied to implement this approach?
- What guidance would you need to implement this type of programming?
- If project proposals for a COVID-19 response are underway, do you feel CBP is being sufficiently included?
How can this approach be implemented for COVID-19?
- Community contingency & early warning early response planning
- Utilizing the protection risk equation to work with communities on preparing them for COVID-19
- Working with communities to establish/identify positive coping mechanisms to COVID-19

Thank you!
Working with communities to support them in preparing their own contingency plans, with their own mitigation and response strategies
