Description

This technical guidance note has been organized along three key considerations for promotion gender-responsive localization in humanitarian action: 1. Access to financing for local WLOs and WROs. 2. Local WLOs’ and WROs’ engagement in humanitarian coordination mechanisms and decision-making bodies, including for example internally displaced people (IDP)/refugee camp committees or camp management in refugee response settings (inclusion and representation). 3. Quality and sustainable partnerships and institutional capacity-strengthening of WLOs and WROs.
