A petición del Gobierno de El Salvador a través de la Secretaría de la Presidencia se llevó a cabo una misión de evaluación conjunta de daños y necesidades entre el 18 de noviembre y el 4 de diciembre del 2009, la cual fue constituida por un equipo de expertos y técnicos externos e internos. La evaluación se llevó a cabo mediante la aplicación de la metodología de evaluación de daños y pérdidas desarrollada por CEPAL y la evaluación de necesidades humanitarias y comunitarias que incorpora metodologías de agencias del Sistema de Naciones Unidas y PNUD, para la recuperación temprana. La misión aporta al gobierno elementos para la estrategia y plan de Rehabilitación y Reconstrucción.Con el liderazgo del gobierno y en contacto directo con la Comisión de Rehabilitación y Reconstrucción, así como con el aporte de los demás ministerios e instituciones pertinentes se hace una evaluación sectorial pormenorizada. Para la misma se realizaron talleres de capacitación y coordinación convocados por la STP; se sostuvieron diálogos con ministros de los distintos ramos y se realizaron visitas de campo por equipos especializados. En la parte científica se contó con imágenes satelitales y un análisis técnico sobre las avalanchas del Instituto Geotécnico de Noruega. Este informe presenta el resultado de una evaluación integral, sobre la base de la información de que dispuso la misión hasta la fecha de cierre del mismo. Las opiniones expresadas no comprometen al Gobierno de El Salvador, ni a las instituciones patrocinadores y participantes en el mismo.
