The number of natural disasters has increased in the past few decades and is expected to increase in the future. To deal with the growing number and complexity of disasters, it is essential to understand the importance of supply chain activities that take place during a disaster relief operation.
Vienna University of Economics and Business invites non-profit organizations that currently are or have been involved in humanitarian or disaster relief to participate in an online survey about the role of religion in operating the humanitarian supply chain during a disaster relief phase.
The survey is estimated to take 10-12 minutes to complete, and will be open until January 31, 2019.
To complete the survey, please visit: https://surveys.wu.ac.at/humlog/index.php/111793?lang=en.
