After this introduction that you have received
over this period, you are going start the

practical session in which you will implement
a project to develop a disaster response

plan for your institution.

This is the practical guide.

Work in work groups.

Each team should have a laptop computer,
flip chart, markers, and masking tape.

Provide some space, a separate room or corner
of the same room, and a desk for writing.

Step 1: Establish your work groups.

Clarify group work activity.

Each group develops activities of a particular
capability at a time.

You will be developing emergency response
activities at district level for each of 5

planning capabilities, one by one.

Each work group will work for a specified
period, at least 2 days.

Try to cover a capability per session.

After the capability, all teams should make
a presentation.

Then you can take on a number of capabilities
at the same time.

You will then compile your plan and then provide
a feedback in plenary on the activities that

you have selected.

Final output is activities developed for all
the capabilities.

Activities for every capability developed and 
merged, hence the 5 capabilities in the plan.

A copy of the electronic blank of the planning
matrix is available in Microsoft Excel.

This will guide you in developing the planning
activities.

It is the SOA library, it contains strategic
objectives, operational objectives, and you

will build on these to fit in the activities,
the responsible pattern, persons, the timing,

the place of implementation, and 
the budget.

The activities.

Distinguish between an 'operational objective'
and an 'activity'.

An activity is what is actually to be implemented.

The responsible personal party: Which person
or which agency should take the lead on this

activity?

There should be one responsible person per
activity.

Then other responsible persons can be indicated
in another column as you will see in the planning

matrix.

The timeline, the framework within the disaster
situation in which the activity will be implemented.

For all activities are not, all activities
that are being implemented predisaster, the

time should be indicated as zero.

Then for other activities that have been implemented
after the disaster indicate the time with

respect to time zero, that is 
when the disaster has started.

So tell us within one hour, within two hours,
within one day, within one week, and go up

to within 3 months, if possible.

You will use an 'All disaster Approach',
that is, you will not plan for every disaster

that is likely to hit your district, but you
will plan with the following questions:

In the event of a disaster that needs safe
coordination, what actions do I need to do?

In the event of a disaster that needs water,
what do I need to do?

In the event of a disaster that needs sanitation,
what do I need to do?

That is called the 'All disaster Approach' for
planning.

Let's get started.

Please refer to the electronic blank of the
matrix and get started with the planning.
