ISSUES:
• IACPs are not operationalized
• Contingency plans are not complementary (governments,
agencies, regions)
• Simulation exercise
• Lack of government and NGO participation in the process
• Not linked to Early Warning
• Civil Unrest/conflict scenarios are not on the agenda (ex
KGZ)
PREPAREDNESS AND CONTINGENCY PLANNING
ISSUES:
• Fragmented and limited EW capacity
• Poor analytical capacity
• Delayed notification, dissemination and coordination
• Need for EW information is not defined
• Neglected conflict related EW
• Resource constraints

ISSUES:
• Absence of dedicated rapid response stocks
• Inconsistent use of internal rapid response funds
• Lack of funding mechanisms for small scale disasters
• Absence of resource mobilization mechanisms for slow
onset emergencies
• Stockpiling and logistics
• Lack of donor interest for disaster preparedness
RECOMMENDATIONSIACP• To regularly update and test IACP based on country specific risk
profile • To seek for more government and local NGO involvement to IACP
EW• To define requirements, capacities, and management of EW
Coordination• To align local and global coordination mechanism• To revive CA Task force: TOR and composition• To define support to CA Center for DRRR
Resources• To regularly analyze funding flow for emergency preparedness
and response• To agree on rapid response mobilization of internal funds • To explore opportunity of CHF• To accelerate fast track procedures for emergencies• To explore stockpiling modalities for rapid response
