As the humanitarian health response industry grows, there is a need for technical health expertise that can build an evidence base around outcome measures and raise the quality and accountability of the health relief response. We propose the formation of technical support units (TSUs), entities of health expertise institutionalized within humanitarian non-governmental organizations (NGOs), which will bridge the gap between the demand for evidence-based, humanitarian programming and the field capacity to accomplish it. With the input of major humanitarian NGOs and donors, this paper discusses the attributes and capacities ofTSUs; and the mechanisms for creating and enhancing TSUs within the NGO management structure.
随着人道主义卫生应对行业的发展，需要具备技术卫生专业知识的人员，以便围绕成果指标建立证据基础，并提高卫生救援应对的质量和问责制。我们提议组建技术支持单位（TSU），即在人道主义非政府组织（NGO）内实现制度化的卫生专业知识实体，它将弥合基于证据的人道主义项目需求与实地执行能力之间的差距。在主要人道主义非政府组织和捐助方的参与下，本文讨论了技术支持单位的属性和能力，以及在非政府组织管理结构内创建和加强技术支持单位的机制。
