As disasters and conflict soak up the precious resources
of poorer states, little is left to support long-term public
health provision. As humanitarian response tries to bridge
between emergency relief and rehabilitation, it is encountering
unlimited needs with limited resources.
This chapter reflects the way aid organizations need to
change their operations to respond to the changing landscape
of emergency needs. Greater cooperation, less competition
and more investment in local preparedness is needed.
And more high tech tools are being used to establish priorities,
and improve the quality and efficiency of humanitarian response.
