Briefing on the latest IASC Early Warning-Early Action Report: A Tool for Coordinating Preparedness
Mr. Frederick Spielberg, Early Warning and Preparedness Specialist in the Office of Emergency Programmes of UNICEF and a member of the IASC Sub Working Group on Preparedness and Contingency Planning (SWG on PCP), will brief on the latest IASC Early Warning and Early Action Report covering the period of March to June 2009. The ‘IASC Early Warning – Early Action Report’ is prepared by the SWG on PCP three times a year which seeks to draw the attention of the humanitarian community on situations in which a change in the level or nature of humanitarian assistance is anticipated over the next 3-4 months. Frederick will also discuss the participatory process involved in drafting the tri-annual product, and the uses of the document to humanitarian actors.
