This course builds expertise in logistics and supply chain operations for humanitarian crises, equipping professionals to source, warehouse, and deliver goods reliably even under insecure and resource-constrained conditions.
Humanitarian logistics is often the invisible backbone that determines whether aid reaches intended beneficiaries on time and in good condition. This five-day course covers the supply chain and logistics fundamentals specific to crisis environments: emergency procurement and supplier management, warehousing and inventory control in difficult conditions, transport routing around insecurity and damage, and the coordination systems that track goods from source to beneficiary. Participants examine real crisis logistics operations, both successes and failures.
Practical sessions include developing an emergency procurement plan, designing a warehouse layout for congested camps or communities, and planning a delivery route that balances speed, cost, and security. Participants leave with practical tools to strengthen logistics operations in crisis and resource-constrained settings.
