PO 10069 - Centre for Disaster Protection - Contract Award

The Centre for Disaster Protection (the Centre) supports developing countries to strengthen their pre-disaster planning and financial arrangements so they can respond more rapidly and effectively when a disaster strikes, thereby reducing the impact on people and helping to safeguard economic development. The Centre has been operational since early 2019, in a start-up phase which has included the recruitment of a small team and the establishment of some initial services and preliminary policies and ways of working. FCDO requires a Managing Agent who can deliver a major scale up of activities in order to reach the Centre's ambition of 'stopping disasters devastating lives' for the world's poorest and most vulnerable people.
