EF 2023-24 · 2023-12-11
Résumé
One of the biggest challenges to delivering timely humanitarian assistance is the ability to rapidly deploy experienced humanitarian experts in the aftermath of a disaster. To address this challenge and to enhance the timeliness, reliability and effectiveness of international humanitarian responses to crisis, CANADEM maintains a roster of highly qualified disaster relief and humanitarian experts. These experts can be deployed for short-term missions in response to sudden onset emergencies at the request of United Nations humanitarian agencies.
With GAC’s support, CANADEM manages the deployment of Canadian and international humanitarian experts in response to sudden-onset crises abroad. Project activities include: (1) managing and expanding the humanitarian experts roster, including ongoing recruitment and skills development of humanitarian experts; and (2) facilitating the short-term deployment of humanitarian experts to UN humanitarian agencies following sudden-onset crises, including in the areas of needs assessment and coordination, child protection, water and sanitation, health and nutrition, and information management.

Description (French)
L'un des principaux obstacles à la fourniture d'une aide humanitaire rapide est la capacité à déployer rapidement des experts humanitaires expérimentés à la suite d'une catastrophe. Pour relever ce défi et améliorer la rapidité, la fiabilité et l'efficacité des réponses humanitaires internationales aux crises, CANADEM dispose d'une liste d'experts humanitaires et de secours en cas de catastrophe hautement qualifiés. Ces experts peuvent être déployés pour des missions à court terme en réponse à des urgences soudaines à la demande des agences humanitaires des Nations Unies.
Avec le soutien de GAC, CANADEM gère le déploiement d'experts humanitaires canadiens et internationaux en réponse à des crises soudaines à l'étranger. Les activités de ce projet comprennent: 1) la gestion et l'élargissement de la liste des experts humanitaires, y compris le recrutement continu et le développement des compétences des experts humanitaires; 2) la facilitation du déploiement à court terme d'experts humanitaires auprès des agences humanitaires des Nations Unies à la suite de crises soudaines, y compris dans les domaines de l'évaluation et de la coordination des besoins, de la protection des enfants, de l'eau et de l'assainissement, de la santé et de la nutrition, et de la gestion de l'information.
Expected Results
The expected outcomes for this project include: (1) increased contribution of humanitarian surge experts in response to crisis; and (2) increased capacity of the humanitarian response system to respond to sudden onset crises worldwide.
The expected ultimate outcome is lives saved, suffering alleviated, and human dignity maintained in countries experiencing humanitarian crises or that are facing acute food insecurity.
Expected Results (French)
Les résultats escomptés de ce projet comprennent: 1) une contribution accrue des experts humanitaires en réponse aux crises; 2) une capacité accrue du système de réponse humanitaire à répondre aux crises soudaines dans le monde entier.
Le résultat final attendu est de sauver des vies, d'alléger les souffrances et de préserver la dignité humaine dans les pays qui connaissent des crises humanitaires ou qui sont confrontés à une insécurité alimentaire aiguë.
