BWDO conducts General or community-level monitoring, which assesses changes in the overall protection situation in a community, a village, or a region. While it might gather information about specific incidents and affected individuals, general monitoring focuses on understanding trends and patterns in order to inform and improve programming and project implementation. It can be undertaken by most field staff as long as basic protection considerations are taken into account.
