4. How we work together...
Viet Nam is a One UN pilot country
Through the Programme Coordination Group (PCG 10) on natural
disasters and emergencies, all UN agencies work together to ensure that
the UN in Vietnam has a comprehensive and coherent plan regarding all
disaster-related activities. This group serves as the focal point for the
government, donors, NGOs and other disaster practitioners.
The Disaster Management Working Group of which PCG 10 and the
government of Vietnam are members regroups NGOs working in the
disaster sector to cooperate on joint initiatives and projects.
The Natural Disaster Mitigation partnership allows all donors to work
together and better respond to the needs of the Government of Vietnam
Efficient coordination of disaster initiatives is a
must to ensure cost-effective use of resources
and adequate support to national efforts
