Il arrive bien souvent que ce soit les membres de la communauté immédiate qui fournissent les premières, les dernières et peut-être les meilleures réponses tactiques aux personnes qui subissent un déplacement ou vivent dans la menace d’un déplacement. Quelle que soit la manière dont la protection ou la communauté sont définies, à moins qu’ils comprennent cette réalité les acteurs extérieurs éprouveront des difficultés à proposer un soutien approprié. S’ils ne réussissent pas à développer une conscience plus aiguë du rôle assumé par les stratégies communautaires de protection ils risquent d’échouer à intégrer activement le « pouvoir d’agir » des communautés à leurs politiques comme à leur programmation ; au pire, ils risquent d’entraver la capacité de prévenir ou de survivre à la violence et au déplacement inhérente aux communautés.
Comunidades locales: primeras y últimas proveedoras de protección (Migraciones Forzadas Revista 53 2016)
A menudo es la propia comunidad de la gente la que proporciona la primera, última y tal vez mejor táctica de respuesta para muchas personas afectadas por o bajo amenaza de desplazamiento. En los 23 artículos temáticos de este número de RMF, autores de todo el mundo —incluyendo autores refugiados y desplazados— exploran la capacidad de las comunidades para organizarse antes, durante y después del desplazamiento en formas que ayuden a proteger a la comunidad.
RMF 53 también incluye 8 artículos sobre otros temas de la migración forzada.
Local communities: first and last providers of protection (Forced Migration Review 53 2016)
It is often people’s immediate community that provides the first, last and perhaps best tactical response for many people affected by or under threat of displacement. In the 23 feature theme articles in this issue of FMR, authors from around the world – including authors who are themselves displaced – explore the capacity of communities to organise themselves before, during and after displacement in ways that help protect the community.
FMR 53 also includes eight ‘general’ articles on other aspects of forced migration.
Our Valuable Voices. Community Digital Storytelling for Good Programming and Policy Engagement (Care International in Vietnam 2015)
This publication highlights the experience and lessons learned from a Community Digital Storytelling activity by CARE International through its Integrated Community-based Adaptation in the Mekong (ICAM) Project, funded by the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade. It explores ways Community Digital Storytelling can be used to strengthen people’s capacity and resolve as equal participants in decision-making spaces.
Community Digital Storytelling (CDST) is a participatory development process where community members develop and share photo-video stories as a means to raise awareness, stimulate dialog and influence policy.

Community-based distribution of insecticide-treated nets: A short guide based on recent experience (VectorWorks Project/Tropical Health 2016)
The ‘Community-Based Insecticide-Treated Nets Distribution Guide’ provides a practical guide to community-based insecticide-treated net (ITN) distribution. It takes readers through the different steps that planners should consider when implementing this channel and aims to ensure that planners considering community-based ITN distribution benefit from the lessons that have been learned though experiences in the the four countries examined in the report: Madagascar, Nigeria, South Sudan and Zanzibar (Tanzania)
The document aims to present information that will help planners decide whether community-based distribution is an appropriate option for their setting, and to offer practical recommendations for developing a system of community-based distribution.
