Purpose of Activity/Assignment:
Background
On 7 September 2024 typhoon Yagi (strongest in 70 years) made landfall in northern Viet Nam, affecting millions of people and children. Yagi winds speeds reached 120 km/h with gusts reaching 200 - 220 km/h in many areas. Heavy and prolonged rain was reported with more than 400 mm in some areas and 200 mm in many. On the same day, the Viet Nam Dyke and Disaster Management Authority (VDDMA) announced the activation of the Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) Partnership, which includes government bodies, UN agencies, INGOs and DRR/humanitarian partners. According to the Viet Nam Multisector Assessment 320 people were reported killed, 25 missing, and 1,978 injured. Three months after the Typhoon children and families in affected areas still faced acute deprivations and risks with an estimated 4 million children living in the most affected 14 provinces.[1]
On 3 September UNICEF started tracking typhoon Yagi heading toward Viet Nam, provided updates on its trajectory, and worked with interagency partners and sector partners to prepare for the impending emergency. UNICEF also disseminated preparedness and life-saving messages, including jointly with DRR partners, reaching 19 million people. In the immediate aftermath of the typhoon, UNICEF’s response - in coordination with the authorities, UN agencies, and sector members - focused on rapid assessment, mobilization of partners and resources, sector coordination and emergency interventions in WASH, nutrition, health, education and child and social protection. A supply plan was activated, including pre-positioned essential supplies at national level, in warehouses across the region.
Purpose and Objectives of the Assessment
The purpose of this After-Action Review (AAR) is to generate evidence for learning and secondarily for accountability on key elements of UNICEF’s response to and preparation for Typhoon Yagi in Viet Nam. The AAR findings, conclusions and recommendations will provide insights and lessons learnt from the on-going emergency and recovery response to Typhoon Yagi which will help to strengthen UNICEF Viet Nam Country Office (VCO) preparedness and response to future emergencies.
The specific objectives of the AAR are to:
- Review the adequacy of UNICEF preparedness and opportunities for strengthening VCO capacity;
- Review the efficiency, effectiveness and timeliness of UNICEF’s preparedness and programmatic and field response, including early warning system, needs assessment, humanitarian programme design and structure, supply deployment and monitoring, prioritization, partnership activation, coordination and management, human resource capacity and management, performance monitoring, information management, reporting;
- Review the efficiency and effectiveness of UNICEF advocacy, communication and resource mobilization to effectively support the response;
- Review the UNICEF internal mechanism on leading the response, by assessing the internal coordination and the support of EAPRO and HQ to the VCO;
- Review UNICEF’s role within the sector coordination structure in support of a national response;
- Distil good practices and lessons learnt observed that could be considered for replication across UNICEF.
Expected Users
The expected primary audience of this AAR is UNICEF Viet Nam and EAPRO. The evidence will be used to strengthen the country office’s emergency and recovery response and improve preparedness for future typhoons. Potential secondary audiences are policy and decision makers from the Government of Viet Nam and other UN agencies, donors and partners involved in the response operation - if deemed relevant and appropriate. The evidence will also help inform practices at regional and global levels when relevant.
Management, Governance and Accountabilities
The AAR will be managed by the UNICEF’s Multi-Country Evaluation Specialist based in Bangkok and covering Viet Nam, Lao DPR and Thailand, in coordination with the UNICEF Viet Nam Chief of PME, with guidance from the EAPRO Regional Evaluation Adviser, the EAPRO Regional Emergency Specialist and overall oversight from the VCO Representative and Deputy Representative.
The VCO sectoral and cross-sectoral leads, as well as the emergency core team, will provide documentation, data and materials that is not readily available and accessible, to inform the review. The VCO will
