Who we are

Who we are

Co-led by International Organization for Migration (IOM) and United Nations Refugee Agency (UNHCR) for natural disasters and conflict-induced IDP situations respectively, the Global Camp Coordination and Camp Management Cluster also benefits from the membership of many partner agencies, as well as support from academic and private sector partners. At the country level, Camp Coordination and Camp Management is a vital humanitarian mechanism as it facilitates protection and assistance to displaced populations.

Where we work

The scope of operations and responsibilities has evolved through the years and goes beyond camps, to also include collective centres, spontaneous sites, temporary settlements and transit/return centres.

How we work

Globally: standards and policy setting, building response capacity, operational support, inter-agency collaboration

Country: development and support of national strategies and plans, information sharing

Sub-national: coordination of multiple displacement sites

Site: support the coordination, provision and monitoring of basic services at the site level, ensuring participation of IDPs and host community
