Logistics in the Emergency Cycle Operation Reporting Logistics Plan of Action Response Recovery Logistics Assessment Ongoing reassessment according to needs Mitigation Preparedness Logistics Preparedness Build-up on Experience
Logistics Preparedness Operation Reporting Logistics Plan of Action Response Recovery Logistics Assessment Mitigation Preparedness Logistics Preparedness Build-up on Experience
Why Plan for Emergencies Why should we plan for emergencies? Identify WHAT could happen Understand WHAT would be the impact on the affected people Consider WHAT actions would be required to meet the humanitarian needs Determine HOW agencies/organizations would work together Know WHAT resources are required Recognize WHAT governments, agencies & organizations can do to be better prepared
Preparedness Planning Process Early Warning Initial Response Country Office Work Plan Event Emergency Preparedness & Response Checklists Mitigating Actions Internal Environment WFP s Programmes, Processes, Staff and Assets Risk Assessment Standard Operating Procedures (First 72 hours of response) Minimum Preparedness Actions Emergency Readiness Actions Risk Profile External Environment Population, Food Security Situation, Infrastructure, Partnership Networks Concept of Operations Relief Operation
