Kurzbeschreibung
(Englisch)
In December 2018, SDC/HA launched a process on the future of the Swiss Humanitarian Aid Unit (SHA). The overall goal of the process is to strengthen the SHA as the operational arm of SDC/HA taking into account the changing humanitarian environment. In order to pursue this goal, SDC/HA defined a series of short and long-term measures. With regard to the rapid response instruments, one measure decided by SDC/HA was to commission an external review of Swiss Rescue, the Urban Search and Rescue (USAR) arm of SHA. The main objective of the external review was to determine the relevance and added-value of Swiss Rescue’s contribution to a) SDC/HA’s core mandate “save lives and alleviate suffering”; b) Switzerland’s engagement in USAR capacity building and c) Switzerland’s multilateral engagement at the International Search and Rescue Advisory Group (INSARAG). Based on the review findings, the report draws conclusions and formulates recommendations on how to position Swiss Rescue in light of the future orientation of Switzerland’s international cooperation as foreseen in the federal dispatch 2021-24.
