WORKING WITH PARTNERS

  • UNHCR works with national non-governmental organisations (NNGOs), international non-governmental organizations (INGOs), implementing partners, the Commission for Refugee Affairs (UNHCR’s government counterpart), the Relief and Rehabilitation Commission (RRC), Directorate of Nationality, Passport and Immigration (UNHCR’s government counterpart), line ministries and other government authorities and Commissions in the states, counties and Payams (lowest administrative division). Coordination with partners, local host communities and the refugees is done on a regular basis. Inter-agency coordination and assessment missions and/or meetings are also regularly undertaken at the field level and relevant reports shared with all stakeholders.

  • In the IDP context, Urban Actors and Humanitarian agencies participate in Coordination meetings co-chaired by UNHCR and IRC on a monthly basis and attended by various humanitarian agencies to coordinate multi-sector response for urban IDPs living in Juba and the vicinity as well as to ensure protection mainstreaming in their response.
