Promoting Safer Building Working Group

Protocol - Informing Choice For Better Shelter

Welcome to the Protocol Issued February 2019.

Informing Choice for Better Shelter: A Protocol for Developing Shelter and Settlement Information Education Communication (IEC) Resources.

This page should develop as tools and resources related to the protocol's implementation develop. However, for IEC developed using the protocol please refer to the specific country level shelter cluster pages for that response. Note that steps are formed of several sub-steps and not all sub-steps will need to be undertaken in reference to your context.

The entire toolbox can be downloaded here.
