Many relief programs, however, remain characterized by externality: in their funding, accountabilities, approach to management, and dependence upon expatriate staff. Reality often flies in the face of stated policy and good intentions. In reality, strengthening local capacity is easier said than done, and there are real tradeoffs between outsiders doing something right now in the midst of an emergency, on the one hand, and building longer term local skills, on the other.Emergency managementDeveloping countriesHumanitarian assistanceDeveloping countriesInternational reliefDeveloping countriesCrisis managementDeveloping countriesElectronic books.Emergency managementHumanitarian assistanceInternational reliefCrisis management363.34/988/097124Smillie Ian714002International Development Research Centre (Canada)MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910449820403321Patronage or partnership2229623UNINA
