Activities
While coordination may not be easily defined, its absence is characterized by gaps in service to affected populations; duplication of effort; inappropriate assistance; inefficient use of resources; bottlenecks, impediments, and slow reaction to changing conditions; and frustration of relief providers, officials and survivors in general, an unsatisfactory response to the emergency.
Coordination is a result of actions to harmonize individual responses to maximize impact and achieve synergy a situation where the overall effect is greater than the sum of the parts. There can be a little coordination or a lot of coordination and, for the most part, the mo re coordination the better.
As such the NEMO Secretariat is responsible for the co-ordination of all response activities before, during and after a change of an Alert Level. This is done from NEMO Headquarters and, if it is activated, from the National Emergency Operations Centre [NEOC].
