TRAINING | ENHANCING EMERGENCY CIVILIAN PROTECTION IN WAR
While Humanitarian Bazaar has been focused on innovating the War Survivors Advisory, a multimedia pre-combat civilian protection project-in-development, we have also done some gender-based violence, legal aid, and refugee casework projects. Our founder and advisers have a variety civilian protection experiences and can map out which organizations are doing what where. This focus should be vital for anyone heading to a conflict area, as well as people doing social work and refugee assistance in safer environments who seek context.

Review Our Curriculum ===>
Part 1 | Protection of Civilians Comes in Many Forms
- Post-conflict and recovery is where the UN and international agencies innovated protection programming for the most part over the past two decades. Originally, that focus was to include protection of children who got separated from families through casework, prevention of gender-based violence, and soon psycho-social support to help survivors cope with traumatic stress.
- The UN alongside national authorities and international NGOs coordinates most international protection programming through Protection Cluster meetings in the crisis region. That’s to map out who is doing what where, to prevent gaps and overlaps.
- Pre-Combat and Mid-Conflict protection, in terms of improving evacuation techniques, bomb sheltering, disabled care in the combat environment, and child care in combat, is still being innovated. Organizations like CIVIC which initially focused on advocacy for families of victims of civilian casualty incidents are now looking closer at pre-harm “self-protection.” Meanwhile, Humanitarian Bazaar is exploring pre-combat shielding techniques through our War Survivors Advisory.
- Here is an essential guide to protection used in the field at the Global Protection Cluster (click here).
Part 2 | Sub-Sectors
- Child Protection & Unaccompanied Minors
- Child Psychosocial and Stress Management
- Prevention of Gender-Based Violence
- Family Tracing and Reunification
- Displaced Family Casework

- Pre-Combat Shielding Measures

- Much more.
