distributions into the surrounding community• Host Disaster Response Teams
(DRTs)• Location through which large
NGOs can utilize as a Distribution Point for relief and aid
Local Coordination Team
• Local Coordination Team – (LCT)• Compile an initial common
operating picture• To identify and manage the LCC• Connection between the IDRN
and the local community • To serve as the primary point
of contact in the disaster zone, before, during, and after a disaster event.
Rapid Assessment Teams
• Rapid Assessment Teams- (RATs)• Local Volunteers• Eyes and ears of the IDRN• Provide initial basis for aid
delivery• Local connection for DRTs• Immediately available
