Consultancy: Management and operationalisation approaches to ICRC’s Health Care in Danger Initiative
BACKGROUND
The ICRC has been working on protection of healthcare from violence under the banner of the Health Care in Danger initiative since 2011 and the operationalisation of HCID recommendations and instruments by ICRC field delegations is currently its top priority. This transforms the issue of the modalities to operationalise this file at the field level and the pain points that exist in this regard into a question of key importance from the point of view of the success of the initiative.
This study will close this important gap by carrying out a methodologically sound analysis of the operating and management models deployed by delegations to address violence and attacks against healthcare under the umbrella of HCiD.
