The humanitarian contingency plan is one of four pillars of the overall national contingency plan
for election, coordinated by the National Disaster Operation Center (NDOC), which also includes
the pillars on security, prevention/early warning and mass casualty. The plan is based on previous contingency planning efforts (most notably contingency planning conducted in 2010 in the run up to the constitutional referendum) and consultations at the Nairobi level.
Based on this prevailing context, the humanitarian community, and the Government of Kenya
have engaged in humanitarian contingency planning. This plan aims at outlining assumptions,
scenarios and potential response arrangements in support of the national response.
