Disaster management is critically information intensive; informed response to disasters enables principled humanitarian action.
The NDOC is charged with the mandate of coordinating response to disasters in the country. The center was established after the El Niño Floods of 1997 and then adopted after the 1998 terrorist bombing of the US embassy after the critical role that the center was found to play during emergencies dawned. The NDOC has a secondment of personnel from various government ministries and the military. The center has operational links with all emergency responders, public and private hospitals, military and police rescue units and humanitarian agencies in the country.
Disaster response is totally dependent on information. That is why the NDOC website is part of the information gathering and sharing tool that links the NDOC, with the ‘‘common mwananchi’’ in Kenya in order to share disaster information.
