Global Protection Forum 2025 - Concept Note

Each year, the Global Protection Cluster (GPC) organizes a virtual Global Protection Forum with partners and field coordinators to review emerging challenges, lessons, and opportunities in relation to the protection of communities affected by conflict and disaster. The public Forum is open to the broader protection and community and serves as a platform for dialogue on current protection priorities. In 2024, the Forum convened more than 2,000 online participants. The 2025 Global Protection Forum will take place from 10-14 November 2025, through an online platform with simultaneous interpretation in English, French, Spanish and Arabic.
