Concrete steps
1
Conduct an analysis of the context, as well as existing coordination and response mechanisms
and capacities, especially of local and national actors, before implementing clusters
in any given crisis or country. Design clusters so that they link with, support or
integrate with existing mechanisms where appropriate. In case of sudden-onset
disasters, ensure appropriate links with rapid response mechanisms, including
national mechanisms and the UNDAC system.

Identify appropriate partners in national and local authorities and develop strategies for
strengthening their capacities and involving them in the cluster approach, such as
joint trainings, holding meetings at the government’s offices or using communication
strategies that allow national actors to participate. In doing so, implement the
forthcoming IASC guidance on working with national authorities.
