26[1] 2011 in review | COORDINATION United Nations and PartnersSudan work plan 2012Review of humanitarian coordinationWorking together to efficiently deliver to those in needHumanitarian action in Sudan during 2011 was facilitatedthrough robust coordination mechanisms and the provisionof coordination-related services at both the national and statelevel. Some of the key developments in improving coordinationduring 2011 are outlined below.Expanding Sector andInter-sector CoverageWhile the sector system, also known as the cluster approach,has been operational in Darfur since 2008, the humanitariancommunity initiated a process to expand sector coverage tocover all of Sudan in response to the outbreak of conflict inthe three Protocol Areas. The ad hoc inter-sector coordinationgroup that was initially established for South Kordofan andAbyei, and later expanded to include Blue Nile, has now beenincorporated into the overall coordination system. The DarfurInter-sector Coordination Team has now been expanded totake on this task and subsequently been renamed the SectorCoordinators Group.Strengthening Sector andInter-Sector CoordinationDuring 2011, several new initiatives were undertaken tostrengthen sector coordination, including:• Refocusing the HCT from a discussion and informationforum, to a forum aimed at addressing policy and strategyissues.• Enlisting the support of the Inter-Agency Standing CommitteeGender Standby Capacity Project (Gencap) Advisor toenhance sectors’ capacity to mainstream gender issues.Developing Partnershipsbetween UN and non-UNactorsThe HLC, established under the 2008 Joint Communiqué, hasbeen the primary forum for dialogue between the Governmentand the expanded humanitarian community, includingkey donors and the League of Arab States. The HLC hasbecome the forum for key policy discussions, resolving issuesrelated to the safety and security for humanitarian workers,and addressing other impediments to humanitarian actionin Darfur. A Joint Task Force on Durable Solutions, includingGovernment, UN and Partners, has also been established,under the auspices of the HLC, to work on operational issuesrelated to durable solutions.Further, under the HLC’s Tripartite Joint Technical Committee,comprising the Government, UN and INGOs, several initiativeshave been taken to build the capacities of national NGOs, aswell as local authorities in programme cycle and, emergencypreparedness and response. Likewise, donors are now part ofthe HCT in order to strengthen relations with the humanitariancommunity and ensure a common understanding of thehumanitarian situation and priorities.• The deployment of a needs assessment expert to developcommon assessment tools across sectors, to ensure that thedata yielded are spatially and temporally comparable, thusproviding new depth to trend analysis and geographicalcomparisons and prioritization.• Introducing quarterly inter-sector coordination reportsoutlining sector response activities, gaps, policy issuesand operational challenges for further action, a first steptowards an improved monitoring system for the Work Plan,discussed further below.• Creating an online database of completed inter-agencymissions and needs assessments. This initiative waslaunched for two purposes: (1) to have an inventory of allassessments undertaken and, in the absence of large-scaleassessment, contribute to an improved understanding ofneeds and vulnerabilities; (2) gauge the methodologiesused to address the harmonization and standardization ofassessment tools.• Developing a humanitarian dashboard. The humanitariandashboard is envisaged as a management tool that willtrack major humanitarian issues and response. It will gaugeif response is adequate and inform prioritization amongcompeting humanitarian objectives.
