The integrated Implementer’s Toolkit for guidelines provides background conceptual information, key operating procedures as recommended in the guidelines, formats and checklists required for effective implementation of the 14 guidelines.

Implementer’s Toolkits are intended to enable the officers and response teams in the field to implement the guidelines in an effective and efficient manner, and to ensure that all the requirements and capacity needs of the field staff with regard to technical details, conceptual clarity, formats and tools required for implementing the guidelines is effectively addressed.

[Work In Progress] Tools will be available to download starting from April 15, 2023
