The document proposes the creation of an NGO Council to improve coordination between non-profit organizations during emergencies. The Council would establish a network to 1) facilitate emergency management planning, 2) manage volunteers and resources through shared databases, and 3) coordinate response and recovery efforts. By pooling knowledge and resources, the network could increase the quality and quantity of aid while reducing costs. Potential risks like overlapping efforts would be mitigated through clear communication and organization within the Council. The proposal includes an implementation plan and timeline to establish the network and processes.
