The purpose of this consultancy is to produce a concise, accessible, and policy-facing briefing note that synthesises emerging cross-context patterns of civilian harm and their implications for Protection of Civilians (PoC) frameworks and humanitarian action.
The briefing note should translate complex conflict dynamics into clear and compelling language suitable for policymakers, donors, and humanitarian decision-makers, with a focus on practical implications rather than academic analysis.
The final product must be concise, accessible to non-specialist audiences - including those without technical expertise in IHL - and suitable for advocacy use.
