Inondations au Pakistan: l'UIT se mobilise
PMIâs early warning radio system being set up to help avoid a repeat of the massive human and material cost of the Indian Ocean tsunami.
A stronger Indonesian Red Cross/PMI must result from the tsunami operation. This view is shared across the International Red Cross & Red Crescent Movement and will be the guiding light in the Movementâs continuing partnership with PMI in
the years ahead.
There is no question that PMIâs capacity in Aceh, in Jakarta and in many other parts of Indonesia, has increased due to the tsunami operation. Thousands of PMI staff and volunteers have gained valuable experience in the operations â and
even if many of them leave the organization and go elsewhere with their increased capacity and experiences, Indonesian civil society will still benefit.

L’Union internationale des télécommunications (UIT) veut offrir son assistance pour la remise en état des infrastructures de télécommunication au Pakistan. Son Secrétaire général, Hamadoun Touré, a lancé un appel à la communauté internationale afin de mobiliser des contributions. Le Pakistan est confronté aux pires inondations de son histoire. Plus de 15 millions de personnes ont été déplacées et de vastes étendues de terres agricoles fertiles ont été submergées par les eaux, exposant de nombreux rescapés aux risques de maladies liées à l'eau et aux dangers de la malnutrition. L'UIT fournit systématiquement une assistance en matière de télécommunications d'urgence en cas de catastrophe humanitaire, comme elle l'a fait dans les premières heures qui ont suivi le tremblement de terre qui a ravagé Haïti en janvier 2010. Pour information, ICTjournal reviendra sur le sujet en septembre dans un article consacré à l’importance des TIC en cas de désastre naturel.
