humanitarian coordination

Humanitarian coordination is the process of organizing and working together among different organizations, governments, and communities involved in aid efforts during crises. Its goal is to ensure that resources, skills, and efforts are effectively combined to better meet the needs of affected populations, avoid duplication, and fill gaps. This cooperation helps delivery of emergency aid such as food, medical care, and shelter, while promoting transparency and accountability. Good coordination is essential for making humanitarian responses efficient, well-targeted, and respectful of local contexts during emergencies like conflicts, natural disasters, or epidemics.
