INTRODUCTION
The aim of this guidance note is to present to Shelter and NFI partners the HRP 2020 strategy as prepared by the Shelter Cluster and approved by its SAG members. In April 2019 the HCT has decided to move to activity-based costing. Therefore, unlike previous years the HRP 2020 will not require partners to submit project proposals in the Online Project System (OPS or HPC projects module). The guidance note prepared by OCHA to explain more in details what such shift entails can be found in Annex V. In any case, partners will have to adhere to the strategy developed by the Shelter Cluster and illustrated in this document. For any questions please reach out to us for assistance.
