GLOBAL SHELTER CLUSTER ANNUAL MEETING 2020

Three key takeaways from the session:

• The Achievements Reports (2019, mid-year2020) provide an overview of the activities undertaken by the GSC since the last meeting.
• Underfunding of clusters is a key issue that needs to be addressed. Some areas to explore are greater collaboration with other clusters and explaining better the wider impact of shelter particularly with the Health Sector. Key publications can be found below.
• Engagement in cash has decreased over the past 6 months. There is currently no session in the agenda related with cash. A few participants requested more discussion on cash. Action: organize a cash WG session during this meeting to decide next steps.
