The Humanitarian Country Team, under the leadership of the Resident/Humanitarian Coordinator (HC/RC) has defined an overall humanitarian response strategy, taking into account the evolving situation. Coordination with the Government of Pakistan is ensuring through regular contacts with national and provincial authorities, including the Chief Secretary of NWFP, Provincial Relief Commissioner, Special Support Group and other relevant parts of government. To ensure predictability, efficiency, and reliability of these initiatives, clusters have been activated in Pakistan to ensure an effective and coordinated humanitarian response. These clusters are closely coordinating with the relevant government line ministries, etc.
