Ukraine Coordination Contact List

Cluster Coordination System

The Inter-Agency Standing Committee (IASC) Humanitarian Cluster Coordination System  was activated in Ukraine since December 2014 when the armed conflict in the eastern oblasts of Donetska and Luhanska erupted in mid-2014. Ever since, the Cluster Coordination System has been playing an active and pivotal role in coordinating the humanitarian response in Ukraine as per its six core functions agreed by the IASC.

In response to the Ukraine invasion, the Cluster Coordination System has been augmented to scale up its coordinating role to cover the whole of Ukraine.

There are 9 Clusters, 3 Sub-Clusters and one Working Group operational in Ukraine.
