CPA Tools<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

The Community Protection Approach (CPA) provides operational tools<\/strong> to facilitate coordination and complementarity between different foreign and national aid instruments in order to find sustainable solutions to a given population\u2019s needs and risks. The CPA provides a people-centered system of analysis, programming and monitoring of the causal factors of a population\u2019s needs and risks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The growing complexity of the context in which humanitarian and development aid is provided makes the combination between \u2018needs-based\u2019 and \u2018rights-based\u2019 analysis<\/strong> important in addressing the causal factors of people\u2019s needs and risks. The causal factors are less and less \u2018missing items or elements\u2019 that can be provided through direct relief and measured only by quantitative data. They increasingly pertain to social, political, cultural and other less \u2018countable\u2019 dynamics. As such, methods drawing upon different scientific approaches are of paramount importance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The CPA\u00a0tools<\/strong> try to provide an operational mechanism to combine quantitative and qualitative analysis in ways functional to humanitarian and development programming. They do so by combining techniques from social research and evaluation in order to address known challenges in collecting and analysing data during projects, specifically regarding the protection of affected populations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
