Disaster Management QUESTION #6522
Question 1
A provincial government allocates disaster funds but experiences poor utilization. What institutional mechanism would most effectively address this?
  • Increasing the budget allocation
  • Establishing performance-based financing linked to DRR outcomes with technical assistance for fund utilization✔️
  • Centralizing all disaster spending
  • Reducing bureaucratic oversight
Correct Answer Explanation
Sections 4.2 and 9.4 emphasize capacity building for fund utilization alongside performance-based allocation. Simply increasing funds without addressing technical capacity, planning skills, and accountability mechanisms will perpetuate underutilization.
