ALNAP and the ProVention Consortium have published a new Lessons Paper, which aims to provide a distillation of the learning from thirty years of humanitarian
response to earthquakes. The main intended audiences are operational decision-makers and relief programme
managers working in the response to such sudden-onset natural disasters.
ALNAP's 23rd Biannual Meeting was held on 4th-5th of June in Madrid.
The theme News Media and Humanitarian Aid attracted representatives from media and humanitarian agencies who discussed different dimensions of their relationship. The meeting report addresses the question of how to improve this complex relationship in favour of improved humanitarian outcomes.
Ideas and experiences from past relief operations are highlighted in a Lessons Paper aimed at supporting aid agency response to Cyclone Nargis in Myanmar. The views of staff in agencies operating on the ground have helped to identify the priority areas for the paper.
