Working in Emergencies. Practical Guidelines from the Field 9. Registration and Distribution

Distribution is the process of delivering relief supplies to those who need
and are entitled to receive them. Registration in this context is the process
of recording the names of these people, and it is therefore a central part of
any distribution.
The approach to distribution described in the following pages is based
not on fixed procedures or systems but on a particular way of working which
can be applied in different situations.
