  2. 2009 External Strategic Evaluation on WFP’s Contingency Planning 2002-2008 • Objective: • Assess the effectiveness of WFP’s • CP in contributing towards EPR at the field level • Learn from achievements and shortfalls • Improve performance and outcomes Emergency Preparedness Mission Nepal February 2011

  3. Evaluation Recommendation (1) • • Re-conceptualize Contingency Planning by • integrating common elements of all preparedness processes, • ensuring links to Inter-Agency frameworks. • • Focus on the planning process rather than on production of a document. • • Identify concrete, actionable emergency preparedness measures. • • Establish a general minimum level of preparedness • for all offices.

  4. Evaluation Recommendation (2) • Develop detailed plans only for imminent, well-defined threats • Draw on field experience when updating guidance material • Integrate the preparedness process into annual workplans

  5. Evaluation Follow-up • • draft the new Emergency Preparedness and Response Package (EPRP), based on: • extensive consultation process with RBs, selected COs and HQ Divisions, UN agencies. • best practices, lessons learned and field experience

  6. Objectives of the EPRP • 1. Establish common understanding of potential risks and their impact on WFP’s operational capability and its operating environment • 2. Ensure that a minimum level of preparedness is in place for all units of the COs • Identify emergency readiness actions for specific • highly likely risks • 4. Guide COs in their initial emergency response

  10. Part I: Risk Assessment Identify key risks Map controls in place Rank the risks Classify the risks Respond to risks (A CAT) Define mitigation actions Define risk owner

  11. Part II: Emergency Preparedness & Response Checklists • Sub-divided into 3 linked parts, each with a specific preparedness function at a specific point in time • during the evolution of a risk: • • Minimum Preparedness Actions (MPAs) • • Emergency Readiness Actions (ERAs) • • Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for • First 72 Hour Response
