Programme summary:

Cruz Vermelha de Timor-Leste (CVTL) was severely stretched during 2006 because of major storms between December 2005 and January/February 2006 and civil unrest, which began in February. As a result of both disasters, less was achieved around the original appeal programme than was anticipated. As such, the 2007 programme remains largely unchanged except for more focus on avian influenza preparedness. This, overall, represents an ambitious undertaking because to the national society's ongoing work in these other respects. In addition, CVTL has reflected on its vulnerability and capacity assessment as well as the findings of a major independent review of national society programmes in Timor-Leste and throughout Southeast Asia. The national society is also beginning to ponder how it can scale-up the implementation of the Federation's Global Agenda (see below). This appeal document profiles the multilateral support to Timor-Leste of several loyal partners as well as the efforts of partner national societies working bilaterally.
