Humanitarian and protection actors should operate on the assumption that GBV is happening everywhere and is under-reported; concerns about safety and privacy are indicators that it is more likely to be common.

Circling around: How can we make sure that the response (and funding secured for it) focuses on the actual needs of the population, more so than the capacities and favorite activities of cluster members ?

Quite often, roles of different sub-clusters within Protection Cluster overlap between child protection, GBV and Mine Actions in coordination and responses, where the issues of victims assistances emerge; including providing psychosocial support, reintegration, emergency services; medical treatment, legal aids, temporary shelters. It seems that the agencies have their mandates to work on it too. In such cases, how can a line be drawn to differentiate individual sub-cluster/agency's roles.

Prioritize safety and dignity and avoid causing harm to victims and vulnerable people while offering humanitarian assistance. All the work we do should empower the beneficiaries and ensure their choices/selections, including their meaningful participation in decision making process. Similarly, male engagement in preventing of and responding to gender based violence is a key takeaway message to me.

what is the role of the Protection Cluster vis a vis AoRs to ensure proper mainstreaming of GBV, CP and HLP consideration in the response. Where can the cluster add value as an umbrella and what should remain the responsibility of AoRs?
What are some good practice of developing referral pathways and how to determine who is best placed to ensure they are updated (national level vs subnational level, PC vs AoRs?)

I've noted that the AoRs falling under the overall protection cluster umbrella, gives sometimes the impression to other sectors that the AoRs worth half or a quarter of the sector…Even calling them “sub-clusters” sometimes, does not do justice to the attention that the four thematics would require. So, I am wondering how does the AoRs should work with the protection cluster to ensure that they are given the needed space and are not “swallowed”, especially when dealing with a protection cluster coordinator who has a strong personality 😊

I often hear among protection actors that HLP issues are a priority when it comes to “prioritizing” protection advocacy. HLP is said to an issue that arises when the IDPs are seeking to go back to their place of origin and must to not overshadow other protection issues at the heart of an emergency…so I would like to know if other participants face the same challenge in the context they work in, and how to go about this internal protection “competition”.

“Like a firefighter a child protection worker should not be out there alone trying to figure out how to work out solutions to keep children safe”. I knew coordination was critical for sectoral efficiency, but this sentence makes me further realize how interlinked coordination core functions are, and how they should be performed alongside to avoid partners being left alone out there.
