HUMANITARIAN ASSISTANCE. Keeping the National Society in the receiving country informed and engaged in the decision-making at every stage of the response is mandatory. A National Society willing to provide a medical ERU should only accept a deployment order that is a result of a fully transparent process of negotiation involving the receiving country’s National Red Cross Red Crescent Society. A deployment order with terms of reference issued by the IFRC guarantees that a consultative process has taken place. A deployment order or request from a non-Movement organisation such as a United Nations agency is unreceivable to a Red Cross Red Crescent National Society. On-site registration and coordination IFRC’s goal for the on-site coordination is to ensure consistent and effective communication with the health authorities and any EMT coordination cell established, keeping the National Red Cross Red Crescent Society in the centre of operational decision making and planning. The RDC/EMTCC/OSOCC1 at the Port of Entry will be informed about arriving Red Cross Red Crescent medical ERUs by the IFRC, or the National Society focal point mandated to coordinate the health response in the Red Cross Red Crescent operation. Good coordination of Red Cross Red Crescent ERUs in the field is a collaborative effort of the National Society in the country, the national health authorities, the humanitarian coordination functions specific to the emergency in question, and the operational leadership of the Red Cross Red Crescent operation where several Movement partners may be represented. For specific reporting lines and communication in the emergency operation, the Team Leader of the medical ERU should adhere to the Terms of Reference issued for the deployment by the IFRC Secretariat. Coordination of medical ERUs is typically a function allocated to an IFRC Health Coordinator, often working closely together with a Health Manager of the National Society. Information about the provider, classification of services, operational parameters and team composition will be recorded by the IFRC operations manager or health coordinator in the country. This information is shared with the National Society, the health authorities of the country/EMTCC, Movement coordination, the RDC/OSOCC and the Health Cluster. Individual patient referral forms, periodic reporting, disease surveillance data and consolidated lists of referrals are examples of reporting that is provided directly from the medical ERU Team Leader to the Nat...
HUMANITARIAN ASSISTANCE. The secretariat for the International Strategy for Disaster Reduction (UNISDR) and many other UN organizations are engaged in disaster risk reduction (DRR). Japan continues to work with these organizations to promote DRR. Amid the growing importance of DRR in the international community, Japan hosted the Third UN World Conference on Disaster Risk Reduction in March 2015 in Sendai, which was hit by the Great East Japan Earthquake in 2011. The Conference adopted a successor framework of the Hyogo Framework for Action*, an international guideline on disaster risk reduction from 2005 to 2015. Through the formulation of the successor framework, Japan has taken the lead in mainstreaming "DRR" – the idea of introducing the perspective of DRR into every development policy. As a nation that has experienced many natural disasters, Japan has also shared with the world its experiences in DRR and the lessons learned from them, as well as DRR technologies and systems that can contribute to realizing more resilient societies. * Hyogo Framework for Action (HFA) This framework was adopted at the Second UN World Conference on Disaster Reduction in 2005, held in Hyogo Prefecture, Japan. The HFA provides a set of guidelines on DRR for a 10-year period, ending in 2015. With a view to making countries and communities more resilient, the HFA outlines five priorities for action:
