According to jim, the CEA when fully operationalized into the activities of the NRCS will benefit the donors, beneficiaries and the Red Cross itself.

Mr Benson Agbro, Director, Disaster Management of the NRCS told newsmen that the CEA will go a ling way to reduce areas of friction and misunderstanding usually encountered during operations in communities.

He said it is also a way to appraise and have better understanding of peculiarities of disasters being faced by different communities.

Agbro said the workshop was mainly to enhance the capacity of NRCS staff and volunteers charged with rescue operations.

Amoma Mofe Terah, Focal Point, Community Engagement and Accountability, NRSC, said the workshop was a capacity building one for field workers of the organisation.

She said that participants at the workshop are expected to develop a policy document that can always be refered to by staff of the society.
