LESSONS LEARNED
LESSONS LEARNED PREPAREDNESS FOR TYPHOONS OF YOLANDA MAGNITUDE • Mindset for preparation should be on worst case scenario level • The same magnitude will happen again • Understanding/ communicating potential devastating effects of “Storm surge” • First responders became victims themselves
LESSONS LEARNED • MULTILEVEL RESPONSE SHOULD BE SEAMLESS • Handover of responsibility from local to national level • Responders to the calamity should be sent in from outside of the area • The leadership did its best but was faced with a situation that overwhelmed all preparations
LESSONS LEARNED HIGH EXPECTATION FROM THE MILITARY • Over-dependence on the military strained assets and resources • Responsibility must be equally shared with other civilian organizations • Limited mechanism between AFP and Disaster Response Councils for logistics operations.
LESSONS LEARNED OVERWHELMING INTERNATIONAL SUPPORT • Timely declaration of state of national calamity prompted early response from the international community • 57 countries responded • 29 multinational military organizations participated in HADR Operations
LESSONS LEARNED EFFECTIVENESS OF MNCC • It facilitated the coordination and cooperation of foreign military forces to support humanitarian assistance and disaster relief missions
• First time that the AFP had an operational MNCC.
CONCLUSION
• Foreign (military and civilian) support had greatly contributed in HADR efforts. • Typhoon Haiyan taught us valuable lessons and experiences
