The benefits and risks of UN integration for humanitarian space have been intensely debated for many years. Based on evidence collected during field visits to Afghanistan, Somalia and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the study explored the impact of UN integration arrangements on five areas of humanitarian space: security of aid workers; humanitarian access; engagement of non-state actors; the perception of humanitarian workers, and humanitarian advocacy. The study found that UN integration had both positive and negative impacts on humanitarian operations.
