\nHART NEWS
\nVolume 1, No 5\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\tWelcome to the fifth edition of HART News. As the situation continues to evolve, HART will continue to develop more tools to help inform coordination within the health community. We welcome any comments or suggestions you might have to help us improve this newsletter.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\tThe focus of this issue is the international response (Who, what, where in the health sector). This will include an overview of recent activities of the International Non-Governmental Organizations (INGOs); UN Agencies; Donors; and other organizations. After each section, a summary of emerging issues will be provided where available. Palestinian NGO and Health Sector Activities will be the focus of a subsequent newsletter.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\tInternational NGO Activities:<\/span> <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\tInternational NGOs are currently rallying to respond to the emergency situation in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, as well as meet the ongoing "developmental needs" from before the most recent incursion in April. The INGO response needs to be prompt and effective, with as little duplication or omission as possible. HART aims to facilitate the INGO response by providing information on INGO and NGO activities.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\tIn an effort to facilitate dialogue within the INGO community, WHO and AIDA sponsored a full day workshop at the UNRWA Kalandia Training Center on the 25th of May 2002<\/span>1<\/sup><\/strong><\/span>. The aims of the workshop were three fold<\/span>2<\/sup><\/strong><\/span>: <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\t1) To address the question of how to ensure coordination among INGOs responding to health needs in the Palestinian territories;\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\t2) To brief stakeholders on the role and function of HART; and\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\t3) To consider instruments to effect the role of HART.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\tThe workshop began with the participants providing an update of their activities. Following is a table providing an overview of the main INGO activities by type of activity and by region.<\/span>3<\/sup><\/strong><\/span> Services at the moment seem to be concentrated on Nablus and Jenin, because of the recent military operations. <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\tFour challenges associated with INGO responses were highlighted through the course of the workshop:\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\t1. Accessibility at all levels:<\/strong> \n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\tAccess is a problem at all levels, from supplies reaching distribution points to patients reaching health care providers, including the lack of freedom of movement for PRCS ambulances. Problems with access have increased over the past 2-3 months. Before this time, international staff members were permitted into restricted areas. Now this is no longer necessarily the case. The conclusion derived from this concern was that INGOs should make a joint statement about the importance of accessibility.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\t2. Planning and the absence of a clear and coherent strategy for the INGO response;<\/strong> \n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\tThere was no clear indication that, under recent emergency conditions, INGO activities had been based on a coherent plan of action in response to a formal assessment of needs. Rather they were a reaction to the emergency situation, in which prioritization was based on quick, informal reviews within each community.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\t3. Coordination between INGOs as well as with Palestinian NGOs (PNGOs);<\/strong> \n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\tThe emergent picture of the lack of coordination between organizations, e.g. resulting in the over-supply of medicines and disposables, drew attention to the need for HART to provide a coherent strategy to address the issue of better coordination, both in terms of the emergency response, and in the long term.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\t4. Gathering information from INGOs (who, what where) in order to facilitate greater efficacy<\/strong> \n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\tOrganizations expressed hesitancy about sharing information without having a clear picture of how the information will be used and disseminated. This was particularly true of efforts aimed at advocacy. There was a clear indication that strengthening the flow of information was critical to ensuring INGO efficacy. Some suggested types of information included: analysis of the state of medical supplies and needs outstanding; an activity overview; a "snapshot" of the state of health and the health care system; and information about efforts to facilitate movement of essential medical and humanitarian supplies.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

\n\t\t\t\tUN Agency activities:<\/span> <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\tThe major focus of the UN agencies has been on procurement of emergency medical and humanitarian supplies as shown below in table 2.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\t
\nTable 2: Overview of UN emergency health activities.<\/strong> \n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\tNote: X = underway and ongoing; O = planned.
\nAll UN agencies are working in the whole of the West Bank and Gaza Strip.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\t
\nSome of the key issues identified with respect to UN Agency activities include:\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\t1. Access<\/strong> \n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\tAccess is a constraint impacting all efforts underway in the health sector. This not only impacts the ability of UN agencies to implement projects and deliver supplies, but also hinders their overall programme management. Tightening of road closures has made it increasingly difficult for national staff to travel to and from their offices. The implications of this on programming are that when closure is at an extreme, many UN agencies operate below capacity.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\t2. Information flow and coordination<\/strong> \n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\tPoor information flow and weak coordination are key operating constraints affecting all actors in the health sector. A number of coordination meetings take place on a regular basis, but not all the relevant parties are able to attend all meetings. HART and the UNOCHA Humanitarian Information Center (HIC) are working to enhance the flow of information in health and across all sectors through various channels, email, the web etc. However, the need for an entity to actively coordinate the emergency health sector response has been repeatedly cited.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\tDonors and other organizations:<\/span> <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\tFollowing is an updated overview of donor activities in the health sector:\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

\n\t\t\t\tEfforts are underway to continue with facilitation of distribution of essential medicines and supplies from the Ministry of Health Central Stores in Ramallah to the District hospitals and Primary Care Directorates.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\tTo date, 8 out of 20 planned deliveries have been completed. A further 3 are planned for the coming days. Nine deliveries remain outstanding. Efforts have been severely hampered by fluctuations in the security situation. The ICRC and the World Food Programme (WFP) have been instrumental in making these deliveries.
