The Secretariat conducted a Scoping and Capacity Assessment Study combining a sector scoping and capacity needs assessment of the sector in one report. The scoping aspect of the study was on the current and anticipated situation of HR and IHL in the oPt, with a view on the role of civil society in significantly altering the attitudes and practices of duty bearer responsibilities and obligations with respect to HR and IHL in the oPt. The study took stock and analysed concurrent challenges, opportunities, interventions and improvements needed in the HR and IHL situation and the performance of the CSOs working in the sector. It is important to note that the Secretariat considers this study a ‘living’ document that will be reviewed on regular intervals, and irregular ones as the situation changes in the oPt.
