Mukti Attends Training on Emergency Response!

With a view to strengthening disaster preparedness and emergency response capacity in coastal districts including Cox’s Bazar, Oxfam in Bangladesh organized a two-day "Emergency Response Team (ERT)" training at BRAC Centre for Development Management (BCDM) in Savar, Dhaka, with the participation of 21 members from 07 local and national partner organizations. 

In order to ensure timely and effective humanitarian assistance during disasters, the ERT initiative has been decentralized. Local and National organizations such as Mukti Cox’s Bazar, Jago Nari, YPSA, DSK, CODEC, Wave Foundation, and NSS will lead the efforts at the community level. 

The trained ERT teams will jointly carry out activities ranging from "Rapid Needs Assessment" to coordinated emergency rescue and response, ensuring that affected communities receive immediate support appropriately and efficiently.
