The project developed national policies, procedures and skills for managing relief supply operations in the event of disasters. This was achieved through regional training and discussions and training at the national level in four countries. This initiative was in response to:
Insufficient trained personnel to manage the relief operations;
The absence of policy guidelines or standard operating procedures for relief supply management in National Disaster Plans and inadequate information management arrangements.
All of these factors contribute to inefficiency in the response system and in turn prolong the hardship to the affected population.
