Training Need Assessment and Human Resource
Development in the field of Disaster Management and
Prevention:
The project aimed at the strengthening of
Mozambique’s National Disaster Management Policy and stresses
the need for an Early Warning System integrating a long term plan
of not only responding to disasters but also preparedness and
mitigation. The development of a Human Resource Development
Programme and Strategy (HRDP) and Training Measure Network includes
a short and long term training and capacity building programme. It
includes the need of specifying roles and responsibilities of
governmental and non-governmental bodies in the planning process of
emergency response and disaster preparedness at national,
provincial, district and local levels to efficiently involve all
key actors. A National Planning Workshop held in 2001 was the first
step for the implementation of the 1.4 Million EUR Programme (2001-
2005) with one focus on regionalisation to SADC countries (cross
border disaster management).
