A/HRC/5/9 page 14 (b) Coordinates the activities of the protection actors in order to avoid duplication in protection projects and ensure that gaps are covered and funded, with a view to ensuring a human rights approach, including the protection of vulnerable groups, and makes recommendations to that effect; (c) Develops the mapping of protection activities in order to establish a protection monitoring mechanism, and provides protection actors with suitable data, which allow a better planning for further interventions; (d) Ensures that there is effective geographic coverage of protection activities undertaken by the Government, United Nations agencies, NGOs and the Red Cross/Red Crescent; (e) Ensures that members of the cluster maintain standard operating procedures while undertaking these functions, and adopt a rights-based and community-based approach to their work. 26. At the end of April 2007, three thematic meetings of the Protection Working Group were held. During the first meeting, the United Nations Inter-Agency Mine Action Strategy for South Lebanon was discussed. A number of NGOs presented their work and described projects to support children, while others described projects that address protection of vulnerable groups. The presentations were followed by a discussion of the child’s right to participate in decisions affecting his/her life and psychosocial support following the conflict. The participants underlined the importance for the trainings and awareness-raising of targeting teachers, parents and communities as well as children. 27. The second meeting focused on children, including child protection policies, the role of the Protection Working Group in assessing and following up on needs and activities, issues related to mine risk education, and the recent establishment of a disability coordination group organized by Handicap International to better coordinate activities relating to disability issues. 28. During a third meeting, in late March, the Protection Working Group was briefed by the Danish Refugee Council about its project on social development centres, sponsored by UNHCR. A presentation by Response International and Handicap International on their current project on the Disability Focal Point was followed by a discussion on the human rights approach to the issue of disability. The Disability Focal Point is a space created by Handicap International and the Lebanese Physical Handicapped Union to provide direct assistance, referrals to services and information to people with injuries and disabilities and their families. 29. These meetings provide an opportunity for OHCHR to raise awareness of partners about the importance of mainstreaming human rights into their activities. OHCHR focuses on ensuring that human rights are taken into account in the delivery of services, stressing in particular the non-discrimination principle. OHCHR also provides information and briefings on human rights and humanitarian law for members of the Protection Working Group, and will continue to do so in the future.
