Abstract
This is part of a series of six cases covering the United Nations Joint Logistics Centre (UNJLC). The case describes the genesis of the United Nations Joint Logistics Centre concept from its birth, in the context of the Eastern Zaire 1996- 1997 crisis, up to its imminent activation in response to the Afghanistan crisis (2001). The facility's evolution as well as deployment mechanisms and results highlight the strengths and weaknesses of the concept and its institutional set-up as a non-organisation under the custodianship of the UN's World Food Programme.
