The Manual for R2P Focal Points was written by the Global Centre for the Responsibility to Protect as a tool that offers practical guidance to R2P Focal Points. The Manual provides an overview of the Responsibility to Protect and outlines tasks that R2P Focal Points should undertake from the time of their appointment until they leave their position. It details activities and initiatives for R2P Focal Points regarding how to operationalize atrocity prevention within their departments and governments. While the information in the Manual is not exhaustive, we hope it will inspire R2P Focal Points to explore how other thematic issues relate to their work.
