| dc.description.abstract | The objective of the study was to assess the humanitarian relief operation practice, challenge, and performance of the National Disaster and Risk Management Commission in Crisis Management. Specifically, this study intended to explore and empirically test the practice and challenges of the humanitarian relief operation in four phases namely; mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery and to measure the performance of the National Disaster and Risk Management Commission in the Gedio-Guji relief operation. A systematic literature review is made to identify variables and their items to design a structured questionnaire. A total of 70 questionnaires were distributed to resource mobilization and fund administration directorate, logistics directorate, disaster risk reduction directorate, response and rehabilitation directorate, early warning and emergency response directorate and Adama main warehouse of which 63 questionnaires were filled and returned with a response rate of 90 percent. Descriptive statistics like percent, mean and standard deviation were used to describe the practice and the challenges of National Disaster and Risk Management Commissions relief operation, Kendals. Wallis coefficient of concordance of the rank order analysis model is computed to rank the challenges affecting the performance of the National Disaster and Risk Management Commission. Davidson (2006) scorecard model used to evaluate the performance of the Gedio- Guji five round relief operation. The result of the study is triangulated using qualitative data (collected using interview). The result of the analysis shows that the existence of strong practice in the organization, the challenge stated was seen strong. The top three ranked challenges are poor inventory management in the preparedness phase, fund rising problems in the response phase, lack of coordination and collaboration in the preparedness phase respectively. Performance of Gedio- Guji relief operation were measured using the Davidson scored card model and the result shows very low performance in its appeal coverage, delivery took longer than the standard time, financial efficiency was very low for food item, non food item and shelter and total over weighted operation and finally assessment accuracy was overrated for food on the other side it was perfect for non food but as a total over weighted operation was overrated. Finally this study recommends that while performing relief operation during mitigation, preparedness, response and recovery phase National Disaster and Risk Management Commission should take in to account the affected community culture, language, and religion, also focusing in strengthen the relationship between different actors which involves in the relief operation, building and maintaining infrastructure, modernizing inventory management system, working on successful fundraising events, working with different sector on stabilizing security, hiring qualified adequate manpower and using up-to-date information technology towards the successful achievement of the relief operation. The study recommends in order to increase the appeal coverage National Disaster and Risk Management Commission should focus intensively on the appeal coverage at the end of the day donor wont delivery what they haven’t pledged in the first phase, follow up with donors should be continues to increase delivery of relief items with the quantity they have pledged and the delivery time they have promised accurate assessment and verifying of data should be done to minimize the gap between actual spent and budget for relief operation. | en_US |
