#UCP is a framework through which this work can be supported, and first and foremost relies on context specificity and local leadership. #R2P #CivilianProtection #ProtectionOfCivilians.#GenocidePreventionDay.

🔹Local communities have been doing this work, in the form of self-protection, long before the terminology of ‘#UCP’ or ‘local #peacebuilding’ existed.

#UnarmedCivilianProtection has an important role to play in preventing atrocity crimes, both in directly responding to threats of atrocity crimes and supporting those most at risk with practices to protect themselves and their communities.
