Briefing Paper: How to make the most of information management in coordination?

This briefing paper is part of an ongoing research initiative on humanitarian coordination.

It outlines key issues and questions related to information management, one of the four themes that will be discussed at ALNAP’s meeting ‘Working Together to Improve Humanitarian Coordination’ in London on 30 June to 1 July 2016. In particular, it will concentrate on informational management within the Inter-Agency Standing Committee (IASC) coordination mechanism (Clusters, inter-Cluster and humanitarian country teams, or HCTs).

Alongside this paper, ALNAP has also produced additional materials for background context: a video and a recording of a webinar on the same topic, which
can be accessed at www.alnap.org/coord-meeting.
