Process
In contexts where clusters/sectors are active, an agreement will be reached (in the IMWG if there is one) on a 3W template that includes standard vocabulary (admin data, activities, etc), and a reporting schedule. In other contexts, the coordinating entity will approach individual organizations directly.
The clusters/sectors are responsible for their own more detailed 3Ws whereas OCHA is responsible for collecting the common information among the clusters to create the inter-cluster emergency 3W products.
Clusters/sectors will either expand the inter-cluster 3W template to include the intra-cluster additional details or extract data from their own template into the inter-cluster template before sharing the clean & p-coded data with OCHA.
OCHA then generates inter-cluster/sector products at national and, if applicable, at the sub-national level.
