The Saving Lives Together (SLT) framework was established in 2005 by the Inter-Agency Standing Committee (IASC) to improve security arrangements among the United Nations, international non-governmental organizations (INGOs) and international Organizations (IOs). Following extensive consultations, a revised SLT Framework was issued in October 2015, aiming to achieve a clear, more focused and systematic approach. Detailed SLT Implementation Guidelines were issued in July 2016.

This session will provide an update on the implementation of the SLT framework, highlighting good practices and challenges. UN and NGO staff based in Nigeria will share their experience with the practical implementation of SLT at field level.
