IPACS is a local context analysis tool that enables better understanding of a specific area where a programme or project will take place.

A team of trained staff (approx 5 people) can use IPACS during the assessment, monitoring, implementation or evaluation phase of a programme, project, or activity.

IPACS can be conducted as an inter-agency exercise.

It generates recommendations for how a project or programme can minimise negative impact and maximise positive impact.
