INFRASTRUCTURE Systems: Infrastructure 3
INFRASTRUCTURE Infrastructure as interconnected systems Understand Interconnected Nature. Integrated Planning. Get rid of Silos. Prioritise Planning Assure functionality. Long life cycle impacts on future Cross sectoral coordination. 4
Development Continuity Development Build Back Better Loss of Development Gains The slope of the curve is a function of the ability to recover from shocks and stresses and adapt = Resilience The depth of the curve is a function of the ability to absorb and cope with shocks and stresses Time Development / Preparedness Response Recovery Development / Preparedness 5
Infrastructure key points Systems approach needed to ensure efficiency, assure functionality, making right early decisions for long term benefit. Infrastructure cuts across clusters / sectors. Encourages and needs coordination in planning and implementation In infrastructure two important areas: Preparedness (mitigation and adaptation) + Recovery (Build Back Better) Better Development Reduced response need 6
Questions How to coordinate infrastructure activities across the current clusters, and through preparedness/ response/recovery and development? How to improve delivery of appropriate infrastructure solutions? BBB Intent to study infrastructure in Humanitarian settings types, costs, needs and lessons. Camp Planning Design and Construction Manual example of cross cluster working. 7
