| Popis: | This bachelor thesis deals with humanitarian aid provided to people in emergencies. It concerns a short-term material and logistical assistance provided from humanitarian sources. The basic objective of the assistance is saving human lives, providing basic human needs such as food, shelter and sanitary conditions. There are several forms of providing humanitarian assistance. The usual form of such is of a material nature. Among the best known providers are Administration of State Material Reserves, central storehouses of Firefighters Corps, assistance from regions and municipalities, non-governmental, non-profit organizations and assistance from business people and individuals. In order to receive a material aid, we have to be adequately prepared for it. Another from of assistance is of a financial nature which is the most attractive; affected communities buy material they really need. The goal of this thesis was to devise a system and procedures during receipt and distribution of humanitarian aid in communities affected by an emergency situation. Questionnaires sent out to municipalities with extended powers in South Bohemia region served as a methodology for processing. The aim of the questionnaire was to find out the conditions for securing the acceptance, distribution and storing humanitarian aid in relevant municipalities, securing alternative or emergency accommodation for inhabitants from municipalities affected by an emergency situation. A concrete proposal was suggested in the municipality of Veselí nad Lužnicí where I devised a safe location for storerooms and a base for humanitarian aid. Space serving as a storage place is designed in a way to meet all conditions needed for both personnel in charge of receipt and evidence of humanitarian aid, and for proper storage of material and handling equipment. The obtained results showed that the relevant municipalities are sufficiently and materially prepared for receipt and distribution of humanitarian aid and they have an alternative accommodation ready for affected inhabitants. |
