| Background | The Andes Region is highly vunerable to the effects of natural and manmade disasters which made SDC set up the Regional Programme on Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) Rapid Response (RR) in January 2018, part of SDC’s Regional Hub Lima, and complementary to the existing Global Programmes (Climate Change and Environment, Water). Considering the expected increase of its financial volume within the next two years (from 1 to 2 million CHF), the Regonal Programme for Disaster Risk Reduction and Rapid Response needs specific support in the development of new innovative regional projects. Further, the strengthening of the GIAR (Grupo de Intervencion de Apoyo Rapido) as a crucial instruments in case of an emergency is crucial considering the withdrawal of the bilateral cooperation in the region. |
| Objectives | The aim of the backstopping services is to strengthen the project portfolio of the Regional Programme DRR and RR as well as to strengthen the capacities of the GIAR in the region and hence to contribute to position further the Regional DRR& RR Programme as a center of competence. |
