  1. Information ecology Increased central coordination (intra & inter), efficiency, standards, common advocacy, accountability, assessment, lessons learned, knowledge management Long-term, proactive strategy, create infrastructure Lack of technology infrastructure Diversity, flexibility, individual volunteer motivation, non-profit, individual expertise and experience Short-term, rapid response Overall Themes/Tensions for the Paper2/8

  2. Common Conclusions about Humanitarian Relief Systems • ICS focused not on technology but on how people use information to accomplish their goals can help HROs overcome communication and logistical barriers • Need for increased central coordination (without sacrificing what motivates individual volunteers and non-profit organizations) • Need for standards (within diversity) • Need for proactive strategy (in support of reactive operations/emergency response—flexible but not ad hoc) • Need for better advocacy • Need for accountability and assessments

  3. Need for knowledge management and dissemination of lessons learned—moving from solely a “doing” organization to also being a “knowledge” organization More conclusions
