Site Coordination

Through a Mobile Site Management Support modality, Site Coordination partners will support local authorities to address current gaps in collective site management, this may also include supporting the coordination of services to IDP settings. Mobile teams will enhance local capacities through a mentoring approach to ensure the application of minimum standards. Mobile teams will also strengthen self-management structures, ensuring the meaningful participation of affected communities.
