  1. Inter-Cluster Information Management Initiative

  2. Main themes • Website harmonisation (global and country level) • IM toolkit and guidance (support package) • Training and capacity building • Progressive development – looking at new technologies

  3. Toolkits and Capacity Building • Each Cluster/AoR should have IM tools to collect necessary information for effective coordination • Each Cluster/AoR should have trained IMO capacity when needed • Guidance is available, with associated training, to enable IMOs to adopt and adapt in-country tools and approaches • Information can be shared • Approaches keep pace with modern technologies

  4. Why consider inter-cluster collaboration? • There are common information needs across clusters (there are also differences!) • Formats for some tools are the same (e.g. websites, contact registries, indicator registries, joint assessment tools, 5Ws, CODs/FODs) • Where common approaches are used, guidance on best IM practice can be shared • Where common, IM training can be developed jointly to support the Clusters but also SBPs and hosting agencies • New technologies can benefit all

  5. Overall Process

  6. Types of information

  7. The IM approach (taken from WASH)

  8. ‘Response’ information • Needs • Status and vulnerability • Current needs • Trends and scenarios • Capacity • Current resource and service availability • Anticipated resource and service availability • Required resource and service availability • System Performance • Progress in planned activities • Gaps and duplications in planned activities Information requirements • 5Ws (Who is doing what, where, when and for whom?) • Field Monitoring • Capacity mapping of: • Services • Partners/staff • Supplies • Finance • Needs assessments (IRA, CAT, MIRA, SMART, IYCF, CPRA, etc • Case tracking (CPIMS, GBVIMS) Methods and tools Standards – Targets – Benchmarks - Thresholds • Monitoring the progress of sectoral response plans • Monitoring progress toward the Strategic Response Plan of the HCT • Identification of priorities and gaps in the humanitarian response • Adjusting response strategies and taking corrective action Response Strategy

  9. Where is Nutrition in the overall process?

  10. Proposed steps • Gather examples of all necessary tools • Develop guidance and briefing notes • Collate all tools and guidance in one place (e.g. GNC website; memory stick) • Review platform technologies for managing information (Excel, access, internet platforms) • Collaborate on developing training – maintaining a focus on Nutrition-specific needs as well as common, inter-cluster opportunities (distance and face-to-face) • Consider specialist training (e.g. needs assessments, response planning and monitoring, reporting) • To agree and establish a timeline with the Nutrition IM Task Force in-line with the GNC workplan

  11. Types of information Web-based ??? Web-based
