A comparative overview of the Post Disaster Needs Assessment (PDNA) and the existing loss and damage assessment and information management system in the Republic of Moldova has been performed by International Expert, Ms. Magda Stepanyan. This request followed the initial appeal from the Ministry of Agriculture and Food Industry for recovery assistance from the recent heavy rain and hail (July 2016) and the late frost (May 2016). This call is also supported by the Civil Protection and Emergency Situation Service (CPESS) of the Ministry of Interior of the Republic of Moldova.
