Reference Module for Cluster Coordination at the Country Level

This Cluster Coordination Reference Module1 is about the basics of cluster
coordination in non-refugee situations. It is compiled in response to a request by the
IASC as a reference guide for practitioners to facilitate the work through which
humanitarian outcomes can be improved. It outlines key concepts and draws attention
to existing guidance, wherever relevant. This reference module will be reviewed
periodically based on feedback from the field. This module covers both large-scale
responses identified within the IASC Transformative Agenda3 as ‘level 3’4 and smaller
scale (‘non-level 3’) responses.
