Humanitarian Logistics and Supply Chains examines cases involving humanitarian relief efforts for natural disasters, such as hurricanes and tsunamis, or public service problems, such as immunization of large populations, that require efficient use of operations research management. This book introduces supply chain models and techniques to effectively deliver relief efforts, illustrating the use of such strategies and techniques on various real-world problems. It examines areas of study where additional research efforts are most needed. It also investigates the connections between supply chain managers and humanitarian organizations such as the WHO, CARES, and CDC.
