The National Institute of Disaster Management (NIDM) is organizing a National workshop on Post Disaster Needs Assessment (PDNA). NIDM, undertook the study for developing a scientific tool on PDNA, under the National Cyclone Risk Mitigation Project (NCRMP).
About:
Who carries it out? PDNA is an exercise led by the government and supported by UN agencies, the World Bank, and the European Union. UN Development Group coordinates on behalf of the UN system.
Background: The PDNA tool was developed by the UN Development Group, the World Bank and the European Union as one of the key commitments of their 2008 agreement to develop and use common assessment and recovery planning approaches in post-crisis settings.
When carried out? These assessments – carried out in the aftermath of earthquakes, cyclones, floods and droughts – have formed the basis for governments and other stakeholders to develop recovery plans and allocate required resources.
Objective: The main goal is to assess the full extent of a disaster’s impact, define the needs for recovery, and, in so doing, serve as the basis for designing a recovery strategy and guide donors’ funding.
