This module focuses on Step 6 of the Emergency Response Preparedness (ERP) process aiming at consolidating all Preparedness Actions (PAs) in a workplan. 

In this module, you will understand how to prioritize all the Preparedness Actions identified during the ERP planning process. You will learn how to consolidate these PAs in a workplan including for each actions a timeline, a responsible entity and an estimated cost.

You will see how the PAs workplan is a key output of the ERP planning, as it contributes to increase the level of emergency preparedness of the Nutrition sector / cluster.
