What are the responsibilities and job description for the Volunteer: Board Member: Global Supply Chain/CSR Background - Disaster Accountability Project position at Disaster Accountability Project?
DAP is the leading nonprofit organization that provides long-term independent oversight of disaster management systems.
DAP engages a dedicated community to advance policy research and advocacy, promote transparency, and encourage the public to participate in oversight, community-based organizing, and discussions about disaster preparedness and relief.
Dedicated citizen oversight is necessary to ensure resources dedicated to preparedness, relief, and recovery are effectively utilized, communities are sufficiently engaged and more resilient, and best practices and lessons learned are implemented so mistakes are not repeated.
Prior to the creation of the Disaster Accountability Project (DAP), there was no dedicated, independent oversight of the agencies and organizations responsible for these critical life-saving responsibilities.

Disaster Accountability Project (DAP), a nonprofit organization focused on improving effectiveness, efficiency and equity in disaster relief and humanitarian aid, is seeking new Board members!
In particular, we are very interested in recruiting a new member with a global supply chain and/or CSR background.
DAP is the only independent watchdog of disaster relief and humanitarian aid.
We are involved in a range of advocacy to make sure preparedness works, relief is comprehensive, and recovery is responsive and accountable.
DAP's focus is both U.S. and global. We recently launched SmartResponse.org to improve the effectiveness of disaster relief and humanitarian aid by helping donors identify the groups operating locally after disasters. Localized and data-informed "how to help" lists can expedite assistance and make aid efforts more effective and transparent.
Over 600 organizations from 65 countries have already registered on SmartResponse.org and most share information.
In addition to improving effectiveness, accountability and transparency in disaster relief and humanitarian aid, SmartResponse advances the localization objectives of the Grand Bargain, a primary output of the UN's World Humanitarian Summit.
This is a volunteer opportunity provided by VolunteerMatch, in partnership with LinkedIn for Good.
