New Myanmar Coordination Platform Available

Following the successful use of the Myanmar cluster pages on humanitarianreform.org to assist early cluster coordination in the response to Cyclone Nargis, we are now providing all new cluster information on the Myanmar HIC website at: http://myanmar.humanitarianinfo.org/Pages/home.aspx

The HIC (Humanitarian Information Centre) aggregates information from the clusters at global, regional and country level, as well as providing operationally focused documents, maps, contact information and meeting details. It is currently based in Bangkok providing support to the Humanitarian Partnership Team and other humanitarian partners in Yangon, as well as those in Bangkok and at headquarters.

Cyclone Nargis Response, May 2008

The Government is taking the lead in coordinating national efforts through an Emergency Committee, headed by the Prime Minister, and has put into operation a national disaster management plan. The Ministry of Social Welfare, Relief and Resettlement is spearheading the relief response.

To support the national response the UN Resident/Humanitarian Coordinator is organising international support through the Humanitarian Country Team, comprised of UN agencies, international NGOs, national NGO consortia and IOM, with IFRC and ICRC as observers. In order to provide clear counterparts to relevant national authorities the Humanitarian Country Team is structuring its response around sectoral priorities. Groups of organisations will work together in clusters, coordinated by a designated lead.

Cluster Focal Points Contact List - Myanmar, Regional & Global
Cluster Leads will be responsible for fulfilling their Terms of Reference which include working with national counterparts to coordinate needs assessments, plan the response, monitor needs and implementation of programmes and manage information to ensure effective humanitarian action. Cluster Leads will work in full partnerships with all relevant actors operating within their respective sector. In this capacity Cluster Leads will report to the Resident/Humanitarian Coordinator and will be supported by Global Cluster Leads.
