The survey is intended to update global understanding of the frequency and impact of regulatory barriers and gaps in international disaster response operations and also to develop new information as to certain key legal issues related to domestic response.

It is jointly sponsored and promoted by the IFRC, United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), World Bank, World Customs Organization (WCO), World Food Programme (WFP) and the World Trade Organization (WTO).

This survey is aimed at gathering information about the experience and views of individuals with experience of international and domestic disaster response. It will be particularly targeting persons with the following profiles:

• Governmental employees from relevant ministries and departments

• Employees and volunteers of National Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies

• Employees or volunteers of local NGOs

• Employees of private companies

• Employees of international NGOs

• Employees of international and regional organizations

Participants must respond as individuals rather than as representatives of their institutions. It will take no more than 15 minutes to complete and will not require participants to undertake any independent research.
