UN WOD 2024 will take us on a journey of discovery through the ocean's vastness, tapping into the wisdom and expertise of global policy-makers, scientists, managers, thought leaders, and artists to awaken new depths of understanding, compassion, collaboration and commitment for the ocean and all it sustains. The program will expand our perspectives and appreciation for our blue planet, build new foundations for our relationship to the ocean, and ignite a wave of action toward necessary change.
This report explores the significance of border towns and spaces for strengthening responses to young people on the move. In particular it explores the linkages of young people to local service centres with the aim of further developing service, protection, and support strategies for migrant children in border areas across the region. The report is based on a small-scale fieldwork study in the border towns of Chipata and Katete in Zambia conducted in July 2023. Border towns and spaces provide a rich source of information about issues related to the informal or irregular movement of young people across borders, including smuggling and trafficking. They can help build a picture of the nature and scope of the type of movement young migrants undertake and also the forms of protection available to them. Border towns and spaces also provide a lens through which we can better understand the vulnerabilities of young people on the move and, critically, the strategies they use to navigate challenges and access support.
The findings in this report highlight some of the key factors shaping the experiences and vulnerabilities of young people on the move – particularly their proximity to border spaces and how this affects the risks that they face. The report describes strategies that young people on the move employ to remain below the radar of visibility to state and non-state actors due to fear of arrest, detention, and deportation while also trying to keep themselves safe and access support in border towns. These strategies of (in)visibility provide a way to protect themselves yet at the same time also heighten some of the risks young people face as their vulnerabilities are not always recognised by those who could offer support.
In this report we show that the realities and challenges of life and migration in this region and in Zambia need to be better understood for support to be strengthened and tuned to meet the specific needs of young people on the move. This includes understanding the role of state and non-state stakeholders, the impact of laws and policies and, critically, the experiences of the young people themselves. We provide recommendations for immediate action, recommendations for programming to support young people on the move in the two towns that would reduce risk for young people in this area, and recommendations for longer term policy advocacy.
A Guide to AI for Smarter Nonprofits - Dr. Cori Faklaris, UNC CharlotteCori Faklaris
Working with data is a challenge for many organizations. Nonprofits in particular may need to collect and analyze sensitive, incomplete, and/or biased historical data about people. In this talk, Dr. Cori Faklaris of UNC Charlotte provides an overview of current AI capabilities and weaknesses to consider when integrating current AI technologies into the data workflow. The talk is organized around three takeaways: (1) For better or sometimes worse, AI provides you with “infinite interns.” (2) Give people permission & guardrails to learn what works with these “interns” and what doesn’t. (3) Create a roadmap for adding in more AI to assist nonprofit work, along with strategies for bias mitigation.

to our preparedness efforts, as part of
immediate and life-saving activities….”
5. Guidelines for Integrating Gender-based Violence Interventions in Humanitarian Action
Warm-up Activity: Mapping Risk across
CCCM
1) What types of GBV are prevalent in your settings?
2) What are the risks in this setting that contribute to GBV
• Pre-existing - exists independent of, or prior to emergency or conflict
(culture, policy, etc.)
• Emergency-related - specific to/resulting from the disaster or conflict
• Humanitarian-related - caused directly or indirectly by humanitarian
environment
3) What can your cluster/sector do to prevent and mitigate
GBV risks?
• Pre-existing risk mitigation activity
• Emergency-related risk mitigation activity
• Humanitarian-related risk mitigation activity
7. Guidelines for Integrating Gender-based Violence Interventions in Humanitarian Action
A walk through CCCM TAG:
Assessment, Analysis & Planning
Key point:
• Purpose is not for CCCM actors to
undertake standalone GBV
assessments, but rather to incorporate
questions related to GBV risks into their
ongoing CCCM assessments
8. Guidelines for Integrating Gender-based Violence Interventions in Humanitarian Action
A walk through CCCM TAG:
Assessment (cont’d)
• Provides a list of recommended GBV-related
questions to incorporate, as relevant, into CCCM
assessments and routine monitoring
• These questions do not cover the nature and scope
of GBV, but basic issues related to CCCM
programming, policies and communications
• CCCM specialists are NOT expected to undertake
assessments about the extent of GBV
9. Guidelines for Integrating Gender-based Violence Interventions in Humanitarian Action
What does this mean for CCCM ?
From page 42:
e) Have safety and privacy been considered at the camp
planning and set-up stage (e.g. through the provision of
intrusion-resistant materials, doors and windows that
lock, etc.)? Are the SPHERE standards for space and
density being met to avoid overcrowding?
n) Are married women, single women, single men, and
girls and boys without family members registered
individually? Are individuals with different gender
identities able to register in a safe and non-stigmatizing
way?
10. Guidelines for Integrating Gender-based Violence Interventions in Humanitarian Action
Activity: Conducting Assessments
Option 1: Review and Discuss
Review the Areas of Inquiry in the GBV guidelines:
1) Which questions would you prioritize?
1) How will you collect this information?
I. What surveys / assessment are already being used where you can
integrate questions
II. When and where will the survey occur to ensure participation of at-risk
groups
3) Who would you need to work with to collect this information?
I. What is the composition of the assessment team, men / women?
II. What training will they require?
III. How will they communicate about the assessment with the community?
11. Guidelines for Integrating Gender-based Violence Interventions in Humanitarian Action
Activity: Conducting Assessments
Option 2: Review and Compare
Review the Areas of Inquiry in the GBV guidelines against your current
assessment tool.
1) Which GBV risks and considerations are already integrated in the
assessment tool currently or previously used?
2) Which GBV risks or considerations would you prioritize for
inclusion?
3) How will it be possible to integrate new questions which consider
GBV risks?
I. With whom will you need to advocate to include these areas
of inquiry?
- Cluster coordinators, state actors, GBV specialists
II. With whom will you need to collaborate in order to safely and
effectively integrate these areas of inquiry?
- Cluster coordinators, state actors, GBV specialists
12. Guidelines for Integrating Gender-based Violence Interventions in Humanitarian Action
Activity: Conducting Assessments
Option 3: Mapping information on GBV risks to mitigation

13. Guidelines for Integrating Gender-based Violence Interventions in Humanitarian Action
Quiz: Conducting Assessments
CCCM actors should:
• Consult GBV specialists throughout the planning,
design, analysis and interpretation of an assessment
• Not use local expertise
• Strictly adhere to safe and ethical recommendations
for researching GBV
• Share data that may be linked back to a group or an
individual, including GBV survivors
• Seek out GBV survivors to speak to them specifically
about their experiences of GBV
14. Guidelines for Integrating Gender-based Violence Interventions in Humanitarian Action
Quiz: Conducting Assessments
• Assume reported data on GBV/trends represent actual
prevalence/trends in the extent of GBV
• Include GBV specialists on inter-agency and inter-sectoral
teams
• Not include female assessors and translators when
conducting assessments
• Conduct consultations in a secure setting where
individuals feel safe to provide information and
participate in discussions and decision-making
• Provide training for assessment team members on ethical
and safety issues
15. Guidelines for Integrating Gender-based Violence Interventions in Humanitarian Action
Discussion:
• Is it always possible to include GBV in initial assessments?
• How can one ensure inclusion of at-risk groups in
assessments?
• Who needs to be involved?
• Why is it the responsibility of CCCM staff? Where does
this responsibility ends?

A walk through the CCCM TAG:
Resource Mobilization
Key point:
• Funding for CCCM-related GBV prevention
and risk mitigation activities must be included
in project proposals from the outset of
emergency response
18. Guidelines for Integrating Gender-based Violence Interventions in Humanitarian Action
A walk through the CCCM TAG: Resource
Mobilization
• In humanitarian settings, GBV resources tend to be linked
to longer-term protection and stability initiatives

mainstreaming activities;
• M&E plan should include the participation of women, girls and
other at-risk groups;
• Include outcome-level indicators to measure program impact on
GBV-related risks;
• Disaggregate indicators by sex, age, disability and other
vulnerability factors
22. Guidelines for Integrating Gender-based Violence Interventions in Humanitarian Action
THE IASC GENDER MARKER
Both Gender marker and GBV
mainstreaming address
issues of women and girls’
empowerment and gender
equality and include men
and boys as partners in
prevention.
• = Tool that codes (0-2
scale) whether or not a
humanitarian project is
designed well enough
to ensure that
women/girls, men/boys
will benefit equally
from it or that it will
advance gender
equality in another way
23. Guidelines for Integrating Gender-based Violence Interventions in Humanitarian Action
What does this mean for CCCM ?
Some examples of GBV mainstreaming activities that can be
included in proposals:
• Community-based strategies to monitor high-risk areas;
community watch programmes/security groups, security
patrols, protection monitors
• Incorporate GBV as a risk factor for vulnerability in IDP
profiling and refugee registration processes
• Make female registration staff available to interview females
24. Guidelines for Integrating Gender-based Violence Interventions in Humanitarian Action

Maximize immediate protection of GBV survivors and persons
at risk and foster longer-term interventions to eliminate GBV
• 3 main types of responsibilities: programming, policies,
and communications & information sharing
30. Guidelines for Integrating Gender-based Violence Interventions in Humanitarian Action
What does this mean for CCCM?
From page 45:
• Implement strategies that safeguard those at
risk of GBV during documentation, profiling
and registration processes.
• Consider safety issues when selecting site
locations so that camps do not exacerbate
GBV vulnerabilities (e.g. proximity to national
borders)
• Regularly check on site security and the well
being of women, girls and other at-risk groups

35. Guidelines for Integrating Gender-based Violence Interventions in Humanitarian Action
A walk through the CCCM TAG:
Coordination
Key takeaways:
• GBV prevention and risk reduction is most effective
when done in coordination with both GBV specialists
and other sectors
• Recommends specific actions for CCCM actors to
coordinate with others
36. Guidelines for Integrating Gender-based Violence Interventions in Humanitarian Action
A walk through the CCCM TAG: Coordination
• Supports humanitarian actors to define responsibilities and
accountability mechanisms in GBV prevention and response
efforts
Establish responsibilities for humanitarian actors in the prevention and
mitigation of GBV
Maximize immediate protection of GBV survivors and persons at risk
through multi-sectoral coordination on response to GBV incidents
• Coordination activities can move across the 3 main types of
responsibilities: programming, policies, and communications &
information sharing and may also include advocacy / efforts for:
Assessment
Resource Mobilization
Monitoring and Evaluation
37. Guidelines for Integrating Gender-based Violence Interventions in Humanitarian Action
A walk through the CCCM TAG:
Coordination
GBV Specialists can assist CCCM actors to (Pg. 54):
1. Design and conduct CCCM assessments that
examine the risks of GBV, and strategize ways to
mitigate these risks
2. Provide trainings for CCCM staff on issues of gender,
GBV and women’s/human rights
3. Develop standard operating procedures (SOPs) for
CCCM actors
38. Guidelines for Integrating Gender-based Violence Interventions in Humanitarian Action
What does this mean for CCCM?
Coordination with GBV Specialists, cont’d…
GBV Specialists can assist CCCM actors to:
4. Identify where survivors can receive care, and
provide CCCM staff with skills and information to
respond supportively to survivors
5. Provide training for the affected community on
issues of gender, GBV and women’s/human rights as
they relate to CCCM rights
6. Review relevant statutory and customary laws and
policies to strengthen GBV-related legal protections
39. Guidelines for Integrating Gender-based Violence Interventions in Humanitarian Action
What does this mean for CCCM:
Coordination with other sectors (p. 55)
CCCM actors can work with (E.g.: education actors):
• To plan the location and structure of education
programmes (including temporary learning spaces)
based
• Ensure school retention for displaced children and
adolescents
40. Guidelines for Integrating Gender-based Violence Interventions in Humanitarian Action
What does this mean for CCCM:
Coordination for cross-cutting issues

ii. Key actions
iii. Who is responsible, accountable, needs to be informed
iv. How will you monitor progress
43. Guidelines for Integrating Gender-based Violence Interventions in Humanitarian Action
Suggested recommendations about referrals
in the Guidelines
• All humanitarian personnel who engage with affected
populations should have up to date written information
about where to refer survivors for care and support.
• Ensure training on how to respectfully and supportively
engage with survivors and provide risk reporting and/or
referral information in an ethical, safe and confidential
manner
• Any programmes that share information about reports of
GBV must abide by safety and ethical standards (e.g.
shared information does not reveal the identity of or pose
a security risk to individual survivors, their families or the
broader community)
44. Guidelines for Integrating Gender-based Violence Interventions in Humanitarian Action
Activity: Coordination
Option 3: Coordination and Referrals w/ GBV specialists
In small groups discuss:
• Map the current referral mechanism where your activities are
ongoing
- What services are available
- Which actors are involved
• What are your responsibilities within the referral
mechanism?
- Who do you immediately report an incident to?
- Are there cases where you are unable to refer?
• What happens when there is no referral mechanism in place or
when it is not functioning?
- What are your responsibilities in this situation?
46. Guidelines for Integrating Gender-based Violence Interventions in Humanitarian Action
A walk through the CCCM TAG:
Monitoring & Evaluation
Key Point:

outcomes of activities undertaken across
the programme cycle, with the ultimate
aim of maintaining effective programmes
and improving accountability
47. Guidelines for Integrating Gender-based Violence Interventions in Humanitarian Action
A walk through the CCCM TAG:
Monitoring & Evaluation
• Why? Limited evidence exists on effective
integration of GBV programming in “other” sectors
• Indicators in the Guidelines aim to:
– Track outputs resulting from interventions to affected
populations
– Chart outcome of cluster activities
– Measure progress toward objectives, considering
diversity of affected populations & their perspectives
of the response

• Analyze existing data using a ‘GBV lens’ to improve GBV
prevention and response
• Example: Existence of registration procedures that ensure
each displaced individual is registered.
– What are the implications of the findings?
– How may this affect GBV prevention and mitigation?
• Failing to meet a target can lead to response and resource
mobilization
• Use data for action across the programme cycle
50. Guidelines for Integrating Gender-based Violence Interventions in Humanitarian Action
• # of displacement sites that have a designated safe space
for women/adolescents/children
• # of affected persons who participate in CCCM governance
structures who are female
• # of main points with functional lighting structure
• # of complaints about safety gathered by CCCM feedback
mechanisms and acted on
• # of non-CCCM sectors consulted with to address GBV risk-
reduction activities in sites
What does this mean for CCCM (Pg. 56)?
51. Guidelines for Integrating Gender-based Violence Interventions in Humanitarian Action
A walk through the CCCM TAG:
Monitoring & Evaluation
Good to know:
• Improvement or success is not
demonstrated by a decrease in reported
GBV cases
• Targets and data sources can be
modified to fit the context

i. Which sectoral activities may be contributing to GBV risks?
ii. What cultural, community or policy variables may be contributing
to GBV risks?
a. Representation of women, girls and at-risk groups
b. Traditional or cultural gender norms, power dynamics
c. Policies governing access to services, impunity
2. What activities could you adjust to prevent or mitigate GBV risks?
i. Activities specific to prevention (focus on gender equality)
ii. Activities specific to mitigation (focus on reducing exposure to risk)
iii. Activities specific to response (focus on PFA, referral)
Activity: Monitoring & Evaluation
54. Monitoring and Evaluation
How do you know whether CCCM programs contributed to
reducing GBV risks?
- Did select CCCM activities contribute to reducing GBV risks?
- What information lets you measure this?
What are the challenges to monitoring GBV risks?
Is it always possible to monitor that at-risk groups needs are
identified and responded to?
Do CCCM SOPs include direction for monitoring GBV risks
within CCCM programming?
54
Do not use number of
reported cases as an indicator
of success.
55. Final Action Plan
1. In teams write down the priority actions
to take forward
2. Refer to the prevention, mitigation and
response activities of the day
3. Highlight key actors and responsibilities
4. Note attention to specific types of actions,
such as training, resources, staffing,
access, etc.

Where does the role of frontline provider responsibilities end and that of specialized services (case manager for example) begin?
What are the concerns for a humanitarian actor to refer survivors directly to services?
May feel pressured, not qualified, to ask more details, doesn’t know how to make an appropriate referral
May not know the quality of the services being provided at any one service (health, legal, etc)
May do more harm in referring a victim to a service that would further discriminate against him or her or put her in an unsafe situation
What is the reality in some contexts?
No protection officers or specialists are present (case managers)
Other cluster actors interact with beneficiaries and develop trust over time – beneficiaries choose to disclose details of the incident to frontline actors
State actors do not employ proper referral mechanism in place or services to which they may inform survivors or refer
How do humanitarian staff work with other clusters to ensure referral mechanisms function properly?
