Sphere India Unified Response Strategy (URS): a model to take Sphere forward Convertir en PDF Version imprimable
Sphere in Emergency Response
24-11-2008

Sphere India Unified Response Strategy (URS) is an action-based project to build common understanding in different stakeholders for an organized and coordinated response. The vision is to bring various stakeholders at state level on a common platform, map the resources and capacities to identify gaps and overlaps and gradually build a common understanding for common assessment, common response plans, common monitoring and evaluation wherever possible.

URS was conceived as an Inter agency concept from numerous discussions and debates among the INGO-NGO-UN community hosted by Sphere India. Agencies intended to shorten disaster response time, clarify roles and responsibilities, streamline processes and minimize duplication of relief efforts through a well-coordinated mechanism.
