Overview


The UN coordination team worked with the Provincial Governments of Yogyakarta and Central Java for one year to provide emergency aid and relief, following the 24 May 2006 earthquake. The international humanitarian response system invoked the cluster approach, for only the second time in the world following a natural disaster, to provide more predictability and efficiency of response. Coordination meetings with the Government, partners and NGOs took place on a regular basis, and relevant information from these meetings had been posted through this website between June 2006 to May 2007. Other earthquake-related reports and tools used during that time are also posted.

This website now hosts various products derived from the Java cluster response, such as maps, graphs, diagrams, lessons learnt and evaluations.

The Cluster Atlas features maps which provided information for strategic decision-making by specific groups. The accompanying text, in both English and Bahasa Indonesia, reviews progress that had been accomplished up to April 2007.
