Listening posts changed how families report risk

Community-owned reporting and monthly monitoring reports informed wider humanitarian responses in the area.Community volunteers in Dablual, Mayiandit County supported listening posts and protection monitoring so concerns could be escalated quickly—with findings shared with the protection cluster and partners.

Volunteers trained alongside MHA protection teams documented risks using simple, community-owned tools and focus group discussions with women, men, and community leaders.

Escalation pathways were agreed with local leaders so sensitive cases could move to individual protection assistance, referrals, or specialized services where needed.

Protection monitoring data was shared with the cluster and partners to inform health, WASH, education, nutrition, and wider responses.
