TNT Electric Shuttle Van

On July 21st, TNT Express introduced the full electric shuttle van powered by the sustainable energy produced by its own building; and I decided to go for a spin with driver Vincent de Laere to experience this new kind of transportation.

Time’s up; tomorrow I’m heading back to the Netherlands after a fascinating and challenging month of working for the World Food Programme in Cairo. I’m going home with a greatly improved understanding of the UN and the world of humanitarian aid, of logistics and of myself.

Operation on Quicksand

‘Planning a logistics operation in a conflict zone is like building a castle on quicksand’ uttered Cluster coordinator Riaz this week, after adjusting his contingency plan for the third time in three days. Who controls what in Libya is on top of everyone’s mind here. Every move the rebels and pro-Ghadafi forces make has a direct impact on the humanitarian operation. And they’ve been moving quite a lot lately.

Take it easy! Where WFP can't reach, there TNT comes!

 Manage your expectations… yes, that’s definitely a good suggestion. It’s a basic skill, always useful, especially when all you’ve been planning for the past three weeks twists into a new plan, unexpected and disappointing.

My final blog ......... what we left in Dadab.

The ride home in our vehicle was the hardest for me. As I recollected the entire journey I made from the time Riccardo came to Amsterdam, then we took the train to Liege, the early mornings to catch the B767 to Nairobi and the ride all the way to Dadab, then the challenges of being thrown all over the place and arriving in Dadab but yet not knowing if we could even come close to the refugee camp was beginning to catch up on me and my feelings.

North Star Alliance is offering healthcare services to mobile populations, especially truck drivers and their direct and indirect contacts.

To reach those mobile populations, North Star is opening clinics called "Roadside Wellness Centres" (RWCs) located at hotspots along the most important transport corridors in sub- saharan Africa.

North Star has developped in partnership with ORTEC an IT system (COMETS) that extends the continuum of care, collects essential data and reinforces quality insurance.

Awesome training

From 13 to 15 of July I participated to the LET training in Amsterdam.

It was just AWESOME!!!

I've met a lot of nice people, I had a great time, I learned so many new stuff. It's just so good to know that I'm prepared to be deployed and try to improve the life of those people that have needs.

It was an emotional training also because I start to realise how difficult lifeis for so many people. We're never satisfied about our "rich" lives, but how about them? All I'm waiting now is an opportunity to really see the difference.
