Unbound volunteers Sample Clauses

Unbound volunteers. The key characteristics of the third group are that they do not exist before the disaster response operations. More specifically there is no (formal) organizational structure in place. This makes the group hard to identify, for two reasons: they have to be identified during the disaster response and they can be formed outside formal registers. Most commonly are groups of volunteer formed online (for example via social media). Adding is that these groups do not have existing internal procedures and processes but determine these during their work. This provides both a challenge and opportunity for other responding entities. By providing them with procedures, best practices and guidance their efforts can create a larger impact and reduce the ‘risk’ involved with unbound volunteers reporting to disaster affected areas.
