2. THE HUMANITARIAN PROGRAMME CYCLE
The Humanitarian Programme Cycle is composed of five elements in order to help manage and deliver Humanitarian Response:
Timely, coordinated assessments and analysis identify the needs of affected people and provide the evidence base for planning the response;
The Resident/Humanitarian/Senior Coordinator and country team use the analysis from the needs assessments to develop and publish a joint ‘Strategic Response Plan’ which sets out clear strategic objectives and a plan of action for the response;
Funding and other resources are mobilized for the response based on and in support of the Strategic Response Plan which is also reflected in sector/cluster response plans;
Sectors/clusters implement the Plan, providing assistance and protection to affected people; Regular monitoring of agreed output and outcome indicators and the tracking of financial information informs on-going decision-making and demonstrates results. It also contributes to greater transparency and accountability, both within the system and to affected people;
Operational Peer Review provides an opportunity to conduct an internal assessment of the response and make adjustments in real-time to ensure it meets objectives; Evaluation of the quality of the response by independent experts enables lessons to be learned to improve the response and future humanitarian operations.
