Operationalizing Protection during COVID-19 Case Studies and Practices from the Field

This note and collection of case studies and practices aims to assist operations facing restrictions that partially or completely restrict direct access to persons of concern by sharing a range of practical “how to” tips on remote protection drawing from past and present field practice. This is meant to be a living document, which will be regularly updated as we identify new and innovative ways to collaborate with refugees, IDPs and other persons of concern to enhance their protection in this time of unprecedented challenge. While we hope that sharing this document with operations inspires ideas in teams and with partners, the document itself has some UNHCRspecific and potentially sensitive information, so it should not be shared externally.
