The Disaster Management Information System
(DMIS) is a web-based working tool made accessible
only to Red Cross and Red Crescent staff working
in National Societies, delegations and Geneva headquarters.
It is a system from which users will be able to access:
real time information
on disaster trends;
online internal
and external resources;
tools and databases.
The project started in
February 2001 as a follow up on Strategy
2010 and in response to the need for informed decisions,
speed and efficient operational readiness. DMIS is the result
of a major effort made by the Federation in addressing the
complexity of information exchange in the humanitarian community
and to support an efficient disaster preparedness and response
for the whole Federation's Red
Cross and Crescent network at a global level.
