IASC Task Force on Meeting Humanitarian Challenges in Urban Areas (MHCUA) Draft Strategic Framework TF meeting GVA Roger Zetter

TF Discussion Discuss the scope of the strategy and the proposed strategic tasks Discuss the format of the Strategic Framework Advise on priorities for the Action Plan at next TF meeting

Aims to enable humanitarian actors to develop more effective responses to the challenges of disasters and humanitarian crises in urban areas

Objectives consolidate and enhance existing strategies and current expertise identify best practices in tools and assessments and identify remaining gaps in order to improve operational capacity (next stage) indicate amendments to Standing Operating Procedures facilitate the means to determine priorities provide an analytical understanding of the structural factors – sectoral, service delivery mechanisms and institutional/governance systems – mediating the strategic role of humanitarian actors in urban areas Highlight gaps in current key sectoral responses highlight the significance of two key elements/gaps - preparedness and urban vulnerability/needs analysis

Principles Improve first phase response by deploying rapid assessment, activating pre-preparedness SOPs and enhanced standby staffing Strengthen country–led post-disaster humanitarian relief and recovery planning Ensure effective and efficient co-ordination of multiple actors and reinforce national and local capacities in urban areas Improve operational in key sectors: Shelter, WASH, health and protection Secure a key role for preparedness and DRR

Approach/Structure Dealing with diversity - generic approach Nine strategic tasks and associated Strategic Activities

Strategic Task 1 Enhancing rapid mobilization - rapid strategic appraisal, first phase strategic action plan, and delivering IASC/OCHA ‘surge capacity’ Rapid strategic assessment and first phase strategic action plan

Strategic Task 2 Enhancing the development of IASC Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for Urban Areas Revise/update SOPs for urban settings Improving prepositioning of emergency supplies and logistics for urban areas

Strategic Task 3 Enhancing vulnerability and needs assessment of urban populations and communities – identifying, targeting, enumerating and registering Rapid Multivariable Vulnerability and Needs Assessment (RMVNA)/base-line survey

Strategic Task 4 IASC Clusters with partners to develop cluster strategies for urban areas taking into account the need for adaptation of approaches from non urban settings to address the humanitarian response challenges in urban areas Examine models and tools which work in rural contexts and determine how and if they can be adapted or develop new ones for use in their urban contexts.

Strategic Task 5 Ensuring effective collaboration and partnership between humanitarian actors and host government institutions and multi- stakeholder engagement with local actors: Supporting the lead role of the host government through institutional collaboration and interagency co-ordination with national and local government agencies and urban authorities Establishing effective coordination mechanisms, partnerships and participation of local actors Inter-organisational collaboration and co-ordination

Strategic Task 6 Enhancing protection and security for affected urban populations Human rights protection and the security of affected populations - government responsibility and humanitarian challenge community as a whole including specific vulnerable groups increasing number of refugees and IDPs who migrate to cities

Strategic Task 7 Enhancing humanitarian strategies to support early recovery of urban households’ livelihoods Strategic and operational gap in the approaches to livelihood restoration as a part of early recovery practices

Strategic Task 8 Building strategic and operational capacity of humanitarian actors to respond to the impacts of disasters and humanitarian crises in urban areas precipitated by rapid- and slow- onset climate change Reconfiguring and mainstreaming disaster and risk management strategies

Strategic Task 9 Enhancing preparedness and disaster risk management in urban areas Remedying a significant gap in preparedness and risk management in a humanitarian strategy for urban areas
