Supply Chain in the Humanitarian Context 

Learn about supply chain and logistics in the humanitarian context through this short animation.
The supply chain is an interconnected system involving flows of goods, people, data and funds. In the humanitarian context the supply chain encompasses different phases starting with activities to build resilience, strengthen capacities and prepare for operations to come. When the disaster strikes the assessment and planning steps determine the humanitarian program to be carried out. The actual operation begins through the mobilisation of resources and sourcing of commodities which are shipped and distributed to the affected population.
