How the agencies played a major role in disaster response?
The Indian Red Cross Society (IRCS) undertakes disaster response in the following ways: The emergency phase of a relief operation aims to provide life-saving assistance; shelter, water, food and basic health care are the immediate needs. Subsequent needs include reconstruction and rehabilitation. These needs can continue for several years, particularly in the case of refugees and victims of socio-economic collapse. IRCS works to improve the quality of humanitarian assistance provided to beneficiaries. The Indian Red Cross Society consistently equips itself with its manpower and physical infrastructures for a nation-wide Disaster Preparedness/Disaster Response (DP/DR) programme. The United Nations Disaster Management Team (UNDMT) is responsible for overseeing its disaster response operations. The role of UNDMT is as follows: i) Information-sharing- Providing a common platform for information, strategies, approaches, plans and programmes with respect to disaster risks and preparedness ii) Internal capacity building- Facilitating capacity building and skills development of members with critical expertise to support disaster management through training, joint activities and sharing lessons learnt experiences iii) Ensuring quick response- Updating the Disaster Preparedness Plan by synergising individual UN agency plans to ensure early, effective and coordinated UN response to an emergency iv) Enhancing partnerships- Providing an interface with various actors such as Government, Bilateral/ Donor agencies, National and International NGOs, Community-based organisations and communities through involvement in workshops and consultations with a view to promote partnerships v) Programming- Serving as the platform for UNDAF Disaster Risk Reduction development
How does an incident response plan differ from a disaster recovery plan?
Each is a different phase in emergency management. Response is usually a phase that comes before recovery post-occurrence of a disaster. In the response phase, the response plan is activated and agencies and associated organizations mobilize to the disaster scene (and ground zero) and initiate response tactics such as search and rescue, incident command and safety engineering. In the recovery phase, the disaster calls for a new objective - returning normalcy back to a community and/or organization with activities such as demobilizing resources, debris cleanup, power restoration and etc. Two other important phases to also research are mitigation and preparedness as well.
