This special report looks at developments in the field of
humanitarian response following natural and man-made
disasters such as earthquakes, tsunamis, health
emergencies and wars.
As connectivity extends to the remotest parts of the world
an unprecedented and transformational development of ICT
knowledge and skills is taking place. This transformation is
leading to a reappraisal of the ways in which crisis situations
are managed and to the concept of ‘disaster relief’.
