The Supplementary Protocols complement the updated SOP for Crisis Response and Recovery to address crisis more holistically at an organizational level and are published as a related policy in the SOP for Crisis Response and Recovery policy page. The Supplementary Protocols address crisis more holistically at an organizational level, as defined in UNDP’s Crisis Offer, including through investing more in Anticipation & Prevention of crisis (“Getting ahead of the crisis curve”), and through providing more sustained and predictable corporate engagement in Protracted & Fragile contexts (“Breaking the cycle of fragility”) – key aspects of the Crisis Offer that were premised strongly on feedback from UNDP Country Offices during its formulation. The protocols were developed through distilling lessons from 17 UNDP priority countries over the past 18 months, guiding UNDP’s response in Anticipate & Prevent settings and in Fragile & Protracted contexts. The protocols apply to country specific as well as to sub-regional engagements and are fully aligned with UNDP’s Enterprise Risk Management policy.
