With an area-based approach to the communities affected by the conflicts and displacement, UNDP’s integrated support focuses on: 1) enhancing Livelihoods of conflict-affected people; 2) restoring Basic services in target communities; 3) establishing effective and accountable local governance at community and state level; and 4) rebuilding Social cohesion and re-establishing community security. The forth component of the Programme, “Social Cohesion and Community Security” includes establishment of participatory dialogue platform at the community-level to determine the priority recovery interventions, formulation of a community recovery plan, and implementation of social cohesion and advocacy activities in the target communities. Currently approx. 40 communities are selected for the target communities for ICSP intervention in the three states.
