One year after the Tsunami, and following the unprecedented humanitarian aid that flowed, and with a lot of talk on disaster preparedness, several areas have been found wanting - coordination, networking, policy and direction, financing, monitoring of relief and rehabilitation work, accountability, transparency, involvement of community members, gender integration, environmental and psychosocial impacts. Karl Kübel Stiftung für Kind und Familie (KKS) Germany, Karl Kübel Foundation for Child and Family (KKF) India and Karl Kübel Institute for Development Education (KKID), Coimbatore deemed it appropriate to convene a national consultation with the following specific objectives:
1. To analyze immediate response, rehabilitation, reconstruction and coordination efforts, their effectiveness and impact.
2. To analyze role of preparedness and long-term development interventions with emphasis on the most vulnerable groups.
