This document introduces the Integrated Context Analysis (ICA), which is part of a broader three-step process, the ‘three-pronged approach’, that strengthens the design, planning and implementation of longer-term resilience building programmes. It explains what is the ICA, its purpose for decision makers, for programmers and for analysts, who carries out the ICA and how does it work. It also contains additional information that can be combined and overlaid into the ICA to inform and begin tailoring programme design and complementary responses, and guide deeper thematic exploration for more in-depth analysis. Finally, it includes an example of ICA in South Sudan.
