Brief description
This project aims to provide an independent and scientific evaluation of how the humanitarian logistics actors perceive the impact of Reseau Logistique humanitaire (RLH Coop, now: hulo) in the future development of their logistics policy and processes. The project is funded by Action Against Hunger.
Project purpose
The overall objective is to evaluate RHL Coops impact, to enable a sustainable collaboration between RHL Coop (now: hulo) and CHORD (Center for Humanitarian Logistics and Regional Development) . The following three over-arching questions will be investigated: 1) What have been impacts of RLH Coop on the logistics policies and processes of humanitarian actors? 2) What are strategic considerations (e.g. enablers or impeders) for humanitarian actors to shift their operational structure towards more resource pooling (e.g. by joining RLH Coop or modelling a new cooperative structure after RLH Coop)? 3) How do humanitarian actors perceive the logistics and supply chain benefits and risks in adopting RLH Coop’s resource pooling model?
