The Disaster Response Dialogue is a platform convened by OCHA, the Swiss Government (SDC), International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) and International Council of Voluntary Agencies (ICVA) to improve trust and mutual cooperation between governments and humanitarian organisations involved in international disaster response.
This review, conducted from 6 to 16 May 2014 in close cooperation with the Government of the Philippines, was prepared by the Dialogue to capture lessons from the ongoing humanitarian response for Yolanda in terms of cooperation between the Government and international responders.
