How do donor countries coordinate their humanitarian aid efforts?
What will be an ideal response?
Donors coordinate not only actual dollar amounts and types of aid (e.g., food, temporary shelters, and medical supplies) but also the transportation of those supplies. For example, the U.S. military has the ability to transport huge quantities of goods via air in its C-130 Hercules and C-5 Galaxy transports. Countries such as Canada do not have that kind of transport capability, so the Canadians may provide the humanitarian supplies and the Americans could provide the transportation to get the aid where it is needed.
