    1. Highlight the concrete actions taken between 1 January – 31 December 2017 to implement the commitments which contribute to achieving this transformation. Be as specific as possible and include any relevant data/figures.

    Through efforts during the World Humanitarian Summit, ASEAN saw the long-awaited partnership between the ASEAN Humanitarian Assistance Centre (AHA) which is the regional coordinating body for national disaster agencies, and the volunteers of Committee for ASEAN Youth Cooperation (CAYC) which is the regional coordinating body for national youth councils. Through a new platform called the ASEAN Youth Network for DRR (AYN-DRR), ASEAN youth are now involved in the regional discourse of disaster management from public information to capacity building and deployment. One of the key points of collaboration is through the ASEAN-Emergency Rapid Assessment Team (ERAT), which was “envisioned to strengthen ASEAN’s preparedness and capacity to respond to disasters, and ensure the rapid and collective deployment of ASEAN’s resources following a major disaster in one or more Member States within the ASEAN region.” The Induction Course brings together national disaster coordinating bodies of the 10 governments, and at the same time regional youth volunteers, to equip them with technical skills and knowledge in emergency management and coordination in the ASEAN region.  In 2017, the 7th ASEAN-ERAT was held in Putrajaya, Malaysia.

    • Through existing, internal systems or frameworks for monitoring, reporting and/or evaluation.
    B. How are you assessing whether progress on commitments is leading toward change in the direction of the transformation?

    Online group discussions before and after the event; each volunteer submits a reflection paper with a project proposal for the ASEAN Youth Network on DRR

    • Funding amounts
    • Human resources/capacity
    • Other: Monitoring and evaluation
    B. How are these challenges impacting achievement of this transformation?

    There is a lack of human resources and funding for the monitoring and evaluation. 

    4. Highlight actions planned for 2018 to advance implementation of your commitments in order to achieve this transformation.

    There will be two more trainings that will take place this year, the first will be held in March 2018 in Myanmar. 

    5. What steps or actions are needed to make collective progress to achieve this transformation?

    There needs to be a formal mechanism for the youth volunteers and the national disaster agencies to be connected with each other, after each training program, which will solve monitoring and evaluation issues.
