Fw: IM coordination webinar - recording and briefing papers now available

[Helen Campbell]

Hi All,  Please see the email below from Leah.  I also saw the comment below on ALNAP's work on one of the skype groups i'm on:

Four short papers from ALNAP worth reading on a) improving coordination, b) involving national actors, c) information management and d) decision-making: http://www.alnap.org/coord-meeting. From the IM paper: "currently, many would argue that ‘strategic’ information needs, which give a high-level view of the whole response, are prioritised over ‘operational’ needs, i.e. more detailed descriptions of the situation on the ground ... They would like IM to be more operationally focused."

Also, there will be a webinar on the Coordinated Data Scramble (including recent projects using outputs from the Decision Makers Needs COI) - see details below.  Please let me know if you cannot join it, but would like to see the recording.

Dear Helen,

 

I hope this email finds you well.

 

I am writing to let you know that the video and transcript for our webinar on information management and coordination are now available at http://www.alnap.org/webinar/28 - we apologise for the delay but hope you will find them useful!

 

I am also pleased to let you know that we have also finished four briefing papers which address Information management, decision-making, the role of national actors and coordination across a response, including inter-cluster and sub-national coordination, are also now available. You can find the four papers, as well as other relevant materials about our ongoing work on humanitarian coordination, at http://www.alnap.org/coord-meeting.

 

We are thankful to those who took the time to speak with us or share resources to guide our thinking in preparing the papers, and look forward to continuing to discuss these important issues. We have produced 5 short videos which we will share following our meeting on these issues later this week. In the meantime, please feel free to share the briefing papers and webinar recordings with any colleagues who may find them relevant.

 

All best wishes,

Leah
