In view of the complexity of crises and responses, the comprehensive range of issues covered by Recommendation No. 205 and the new concepts and terminology involved, the Office will dedicate significant resources and effort to promotional briefings and information sessions.

Systematic awareness-raising and advocacy initiatives at global and country level will be developed to promote understanding of how the guidance contained in the Recommendation can be put into effect in different contexts. These initiatives will aim to reach the ILO’s tripartite constituents as well as the wider community engaged in peacebuilding and in crisis prevention and recovery.
