Making Aid Work
building robust systems that deliver
Volker Hüls Aid Monitoring - Aid Systems - Disaster Risk Reduction
I have 15 years experience in planning and managing humanitarian assistance, building on a 12-year background in national civil protection in Germany. I have worked extensively in national disaster response, and international humanitarian response, recovery, and resilience building programs. My current professional focus is on strategic planning, results-based management, and the monitoring of aid. I also have a particular interest in how traditional aid systems can support disaster risk reduction approaches.

Disaster Risk Reduction DRR
I have worked with government and civil society to strengthen disaster preparedness, complementing my civil protection experience.

Aid Coordination
Following extensive experience in sector coordination I was part of the first IASC cluster pilots and have seen the cluster system evolve. I have also worked in key functions in UN coordination, both regular and humanitarian, which gives me a thorough understanding of the mechanics of aid coordination.
