 I'm Atsiga Patrick, I work for Danish Reputant Cancer in Sosudan but in most emergencies in Sosudan, the biggest challenge in gaining access to protection activities are ongoing security concerns and inaccessible terrains. More frequently, flooding and extreme weather conditions combine with poor infrastructures and limited means of transport. We need to hinder access to some locations within the country. Simultaneously, areas with active public and frequent classes, particularly hard to reach areas, make it very hard for our protection team to assess some locations. As humanitarian access is hindered, delayed or denied, and protection needs increases over time and vulnerabilities are often exacerbated. With DRC Mobile Response Programme, DRC is able to try and mitigate access challenges and deliver timely protection services to the most in need. My name is John D'Ariel, I'm the founder and executive director for Mobile Humanitarian Agency. Mobile Humanitarian Agency is a national radio, a successful notification of the access to the southern unity, the unity state inventive. There was a 2018 building a very active conflict where we need to access both locations, which is being controlled by different administration, the opposition, and the government. We had to negotiate that successful. What we used to do when we have a demand signal from our people, we do what we call the contact analysis and the stack order mapping. That is to give us an idea of who we should be talking to to negotiate the access. And we also do what we call environmentalist cunning to identify the threats and then the vulnerability. The second thing that we usually used to do as well is to recruit within the area of the project site, local recruitment. That gives us an advantage of a situation whereby it happened that there is an active conflict again that are repeatedly stopped and relocated. But the local recruiting staff can remain. That give us leverage of being able to get the information from the ground and still going to continue with our activities as well. My name is David Hattar and I'm the Roving Protection Cluster Officer in South Sudan. As we all know, funds are ever decreasing, which is leading to a lot of competition between humanitarian actors to deliver results. I think there are two key things that need to happen. The first thing is stakeholders, specifically donors, need to be more lenient and understanding when it comes to results. Because we're seeing a lot of competition, we're seeing a lot of attitude that if a certain actor does not deliver results to the donors, then this means no future funding. So I think this is quite a challenge actually coming from the top down. Another thing that I think is vital is that we need stakeholders, donors alike, senior management to encourage collaboration, not just between agencies, but actually between clusters. And I think one way to go about this is to ensure MOUs, for example, between clusters, we've seen this already happening with certain clusters, so that if someone is going to the field to do any negotiation for access, that they keep protection in mind.
