Introduction
The Afghanistan Protection Cluster (APC) protection monitoring (PM) relies on contributions from Protection Cluster (PC) partners who regularly collect PM data through Household (HH) and Key Informant Interviews (KIIs) utilizing online data collection tools. The aim of PM is to collect evidence-based data on the protection needs and risks of IDPs, returnees (undocumented returnees and refugee returnees), and host communities to inform programming and advocacy.
