Community Based Protection Monitoring 2024 October - December

Community-Based Protection Monitoring (CBPM) is one of UNHCR’s key tools to identify and monitor key protection issues including violations of rights, displacement, needs of vulnerable populations, access to rights and services, safety, freedom of movement, and occurrences of issues involving Gender Based Violence (GBV), Child Protection (CP), explosive hazards and Housing Land and Property (HLP), in order to identify persons in need of assistance, inform the humanitarian response and advocate for the protection of civilians. CBPM also serves as an evidence-base
for design and implementation of protection programs.
The methodology used has been jointly developed with the Afghanistan Protection Cluster (APC) and includes standardized data collection tools (HH, KII and FGDs). To monitor and compare the protection environment of girls, boys, men, and women, the data is disaggregated by age and gender that identifies adolescents, youth, and elderly, as well as population groups (i.e., refugees, refugee returnees, undocumented returnees, IDPs, IDP returnees, host communities).
