Myr 2006 Humanitarian Appeal.Pdf (English) Mid-Year Review Version: 3.1 Date: 20 July 2006 Consolidated Appeals Process (CAP) The CAP is much more than an appeal for money. It is an inclusive and coordinated programme cycle of: • strategic planning leading to a Common Humanitarian Action Plan (CHAP); • resource mobilisation (leading to a Consolidated Appeal or a Flash Appeal); • coordinated programme implementation; • joint monitoring and evaluation; • revision, if necessary; and • reporting on results. The CHAP is a strategic plan for humanitarian response in a given country or region and includes the following elements: • a common analysis of the context in which humanitarian action takes place; • an assessment of needs; • best, worst, and most likely scenarios; • stakeholder analysis, i.e. who does what and where; • a clear statement of longer-term objectives and goals; • prioritised response plans; and • a framework for monitoring the strategy and revising it if necessary. The CHAP is the foundation for developing a Consolidated Appeal or, when crises break or natural disasters strike, a Flash Appeal. Under the leadership of the Humanitarian Coordinator, the CHAP is developed at the field level by the Inter-Agency Standing Committee (IASC) Country Team. This team mirrors the IASC structure at headquarters and includes UN agencies and standing invitees, i.e. the International Organization for Migration, the Red Cross and Red Crescent Move ment, and NGOs that belong to ICVA, Interaction, or SCHR. Non-IASC members, such as national NGOs, can be included, and other key stakeholders in humanitarian action, in particular host governments and donors, should be consulted. The Humanitarian Coordinator is responsible for the annual preparation of the consolidated appeal document. The document is launched globally each November to enhance advocacy and resource mobilisation. An update, known as the Mid-Year Review, is to be presented to donors in July 2006. Donors provide resources to appealing agencies di rectly in response to project proposals. The Financial Tracking Service (FTS), managed by the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), is a database of donor contributions and can be found on www.reliefweb.int/fts In sum, the CAP works to provide people in need the best available protection and assistance, on time.

ONIMOLE,rt MSS, DSS, FSS, fellow of war college - (fwc), pass staff college-psc(+), MSc. Political Science (Strategic Studies) – University of Ibadan. JUNE 2005. EXECUTIVE SUMMARIES The United Nations system, with its array of organizations and agencies, governed by decisions of member states, can be said to be somehow complex. Often decisions taken in one governing body differ from those taken in another, as member States may push for contradictory decisions in different directions. Thus, coherence in requests for United Nations operational programs and even from its special agencies may not always exist. Also, the deluge of United Nations humanitarian assistance programs, together with their multiple implementing partners from outside the UN system, usually add to this complexity. The proliferation of relief actors, the inconsistencies of donor responses, disconnected bilateralism (when added to the uncertain boundaries of humanitarian assistance), and the scarcity of resources are all part of the environment faced by the international relief network. But as the dynamics of assorted events seem to wait for no one, there should b e a better way to resolve the cycle of crisis.

Extremely weak domestic infrastructure and institutions, poor governance and a violent political crisis that broke out in February 2004 left the country with virtually non-existent civilian disaster relief capabilities. Thus, foreign troops deployed under United Nations mandate to restore security and stability and to facilitate the provision of humanitarian relief, among other tasks, became the main actors for disaster relief. At the same time, the relief operation became intertwined with the larger question of domestic insecurity. The natural disasters caused by flooding in May 2004 and tropical storm Jeanne in September–October 2004 differed in their nature but together marked a turning point in disaster relief management in Haiti. Background Weak domestic infrastructure and institutions Haiti is one of the world’s poorest countries. Endemic violence and failed governance have led to a continuous decline in development and investment and to a high dependency on foreign aid and security.

  • The Effectiveness of Foreign Military Assets in Natural Disaster Response
    THE EFFECTIVENESS OF FOREIGN MILITARY ASSETS IN NATURAL DISASTER RESPONSE A report by the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute THE EFFECTIVENESS OF FOREIGN MILITARY ASSETS IN NATURAL DISASTER RESPONSE This study examines the advantages, limitations and implications of involving foreign military assets—personnel, equipment and expertise—in the relief operations that follow major natural disasters. It presents the findings of a research project carried out by the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) with the support of the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA). Foreign military assets have made large contributions to several recent natural disaster relief operations, yet their use in such operations remains controversial. The questions asked range from matters of principle—is it appropriate for foreign forces to take part in humanitarian work?—to more practical considerations such as cost, how effectively foreign military assets can participate in civilian-led humanitarian operations and how the presence of foreign military assets affects the ability of civilian humanitarian organizations to act independently and safely. This study provides an overview of the current use of foreign military assets in natural disaster response, including how and why they are deployed. It also analyses the role played by foreign military assets in several major disaster relief operations: in Mozambique following the floods in 2000, in Haiti following floods and tropical storm Jeanne in 2004, in Aceh province, Indonesia, following the Indian Ocean tsunami of 2004, and in Pakistan-administered Kashmir following the South Asia earthquake of 2005. The Effectiveness of Foreign Military Assets in Natural Disaster Response Stockholm International Peace Research Institute SIPRI is an independent international institute for research into problems of peace and conflict, especially those of arms control and disarmament.
