Learning from disaster: How governments gain insight and how regional and international bodies can help
The Active Learning Network for Accountability and Performance in Humanitarian Action (ALNAP) has been working for a number of years to strengthen its links with National Disaster Management Authorities (NDMAs) and to better understand the relationship between disaster-affected states and the international humanitarian system.
This study builds on a recent host governments’ forum on humanitarian response organized by ALNAP, which brought together senior representatives from governments across the globe to share experience and learning on responding to disasters.

This study builds on a recent host governments’ forum on humanitarian response organized by ALNAP, which brought together senior representatives from governments across the globe to share experience and learning on responding to disasters.
It explores the ways NDMAs and other state actors learn and improve their humanitarian response activities, with a view to identifying current practices, challenges that impede learning and improvement and ways in which collaboration with others has helped overcome these challenges.
The study adopts a three-stage analytical model, in which knowledge is: created through research, evaluation, after-action reviews (AARs) and reflection
organised in repositories, including online databases
shared in standards, guidelines and staff training.
