More integrated area approaches 34. Donors should consider that joint evaluations have been an effective mechanism to pool efforts in reviewing relief and development interventions. Increasing local and regional participation in future joint evaluations and publicising efforts in local follow-up may encourage the development of local capacities to lead reform and a more integrated approach. Less restrictive risk reduction 35. Donors should monitor the local level implementation of risk reduction strategies, and fund targeted projects where this is weak. 36. Donors should conduct disaster risk assessments prior to providing grants or loans for projects in high risk areas. Better notions of capacity building 37. Donors should consider funding targeted personnel programmes or even institutions designed to improve the skills of specialists, assist in placement, and helping to understand the mazes of national social security and opportunities as they relate to safety nets and pension plans. 38. Donors should be sensitive to the time needed to accomplish effective and sustainable recovery programmes, and pressure to spend by implementing agencies should be reduced by increasing reliance on monitoring and evaluation to assess whether a programme is on track. 8.3 For United Nations, Red Cross and Red Crescent, and NGOs Better targeted livelihoods recovery 39. Market analyses should form part of UN and NGO funding flows aiming to restore livelihoods. 40. NGO micro-credit schemes and the more sophisticated versions of micro-finance should only follow after the relief phase. All savings and loan programs should be designed by national or local level bodies and not by external actors with low in-country experience. More long range analysis 41. Stronger linkages are required from operational agencies in terms of their identification of general objectives. These should make a constant effort to identify other complementary interventions. They should strengthen their account of impact on capacity in the country. 42. NGOs should encourage local presence by their personnel, and monitor public perceptions and expectations. 120
43. Conflict sensitivity analysis should be part of all international organisation and NGO programming, based on an explicit analysis or mapping of the immediate conflict environment, and their relation with programme delivery. Strengthen local level state effectiveness 44. NGOs should continue to refine participatory approaches, including public consultation and grievance mechanisms. These should lead to a programme documentation that straddles different projects and years for NGOs engaging in reconstruction work, and should lead to clear advocacy guidelines. 45. NGOs and UN agencies should be cooperating with government to reestablish or clarify the legal rights of affected populations, and contribute to a dialogue for the establishment of consistent policies on land use. More integrated area approaches 46. NGOs and UN agencies should target need that is carefully articulated in terms of market opportunities for the beneficiaries, and the probability of future investments. 47. UN agencies should examine how the early recovery sector leads or cluster approaches should enable a rapid transition to an area based approach. There are such examples in the world where long term rehabilitation sectoral approaches are managed at the sub-regional level. Less restrictive risk reduction 48. UN agencies, the Red Cross Movement, and NGOs should implement their DRR projects with a multi-hazard focus, even if taking advantage of increased interest in risk reduction after a major disaster. 49. All agencies, in particular the Red Cross Movement, and NGOs, should attempt to design DRR projects that bring short-term as well as long-term benefits to make participation in DRR more attractive for affected communities. Better notions of capacity building 50. International agencies, which are affected by a high turnover of staff, should strengthen human resource mechanisms that can ensure that high quality personnel will be attracted to work in disaster reconstruction, and will be retained, possibly in an interagency context and internationally, over many years. 121
