  2. Framework Framework Challenges Approach Implementation Planning Framework – 4 Objectives 1 A B Staff Health and Safety Business Continuity Implement measures that may minimize impact on Staff health and safety Maintain operational continuity (programme and infrastructure) C D New Services New Programmes Contribute to a system-wide effort to prepare for, prevent and combat AHI Identify and address food security needs of possible new beneficiary caseloads

  3. Framework Challenges Challenges Approach Implementation Possible Pandemic Timeline ~ 2-3 weeks ~ 12-18 months 3 4 5 6 1 Prep. Mode Crisis Mode Crisis Mode Crisis Mode Lockdown Mode Lockdown Mode ~ 4-6 weeks ~ 4-6 weeks Key planning considerations • Time-scale – not a single event!! • Long term norms change • Tested / resilient systems

  4. Framework Challenges Challenges Approach Implementation Market Disruptions 1 1 • Market Changes: • Commodities, Services, Staff, Fuel • Supply & demand will be affected (therefore Price) • Imposed restrictions (borders, freedom of movement, protectionism) • Increase in demand for humanitarian logistics services: • Increased complexity of supplying existing humanitarian crises • New Humanitarian crises • Geographic spread of the needs Logistics Challenges 2 2 Sea (shipping, port operations) Surface (road, train, borders crossings) Air transport (cargo, humanitarian workers, evacuation) Storage

  5. Approach Framework Challenges Approach Implementation Prioritization 1 1 Partnerships 2 2 3 3 Planning

  6. Approach Framework Challenges Approach Implementation Prioritization 1 1 • Using MapleCroft approach • Based on FAO, WHO, WB, OiE data • Hardship classification done by ICSC (International Civil Service Commission)

  7. Approach Framework Challenges Approach Implementation Prioritization 1 1

  8. Approach Framework Challenges Approach Implementation Prioritization 1 1

  9. Approach Framework Challenges Approach Implementation Partnerships 2 2 • Humanitarian Partners: • To anticipate needs & capacities • To understand and manage expectations • Private Sector: • To understand their BCP • To build strategic partnerships • Civil and Military: • To understand their role in quarantine enforcement • To anticipate use of Military & Civil Defense assets (nat’l & internat’l) • Partners in Pandemic Preparedness: • UNSIC, PICs, participating Agencies and Donors • to ensure the Log’s CONOPS is in support to the overarching objectives of the UN System

  10. Approach Framework Challenges Approach Implementation In order to support National Preparedness and Response Minimize a pandemic’s impact onStaff Health & Safety In order to maintain and sustain Operation capacity 3 3 Planning • Common objectives • Common planning standard => Based on similar guidelines => Global contingency planning effort • Anchored on UNCT paradigm => Inter-Agency => Country-specific

  11. Implementation The Threat Preparedness Prioritization Logistics Next Steps – Implementation plans Share: • planning assumptions • baseline data Engage and test: • Ensure engagement of all stakeholders • Consolidate a civil society ownership • Test assumptions and plans • Develop protocols (SOPs) Aim for: • Multi-sectorial joint operation response • Robustness and flexibility • Reinforced resilience of the systems A B C
