Cluster Coordination
Introduction
Clusters (and the four areas of responsibilities within protection) bring together UN and non-UN partners around 15 technical areas of humanitarian action, with the aim of coordinating preparedness and response activities. The cluster approach was established on 12 September 2005 and first applied in the 2005 earthquake response in Pakistan. Since then, the cluster approach has been used in more than 60 countries to deliver humanitarian action.
