Event and evidence
AHA Centre Situation Update No.6 of 18 September 2024 covers the regional Yagi and monsoon situation. Its Thailand section reports flooding and landslides, including northern areas.
What the evidence supports
This is an interim report. Figures and coverage can change between updates; it is neither a final tally nor attribution of all impacts to a single storm.
Connect disciplines for analysis
Proposed analysis: distinguish publication time from the timestamp of each observation, and compare geographic coverage before aggregation. In the exercise, identify missing road, shelter and volunteer information rather than infer it from a map alone.
Apply in an exercise
Project-proposed activity: Build a shared situation table from fictional updates at different times, labeling confirmed and unverified items and assigning verification owners. Exercise data are fictional and must be separated from historical facts.
See the process at a glance
A synthesized learning diagram. Read it alongside the lesson and original sources.
Set the scope
Record time, geography, evidence type and unresolved claims.
Connect information and roles
Map actors and information handovers in the fictional task.
Create evidence
Develop a plan with assumptions, owners and rationale.
Review and revise
Record what changed, the evidence behind it and an improvement owner.
Explore a decision
Fictional scenario: two shelter-population reports differ, but use different times and areas. What should you do?
Learning rationale: different scopes need not contradict each other. Check comparability before combining totals.
From knowledge to evidence
Build a shared situation table from fictional updates at different times, labeling confirmed and unverified items and assigning verification owners.
| Criterion | Proficient | Developing |
|---|---|---|
| Evidence and scope | Separates facts, assumptions and limits with sources. | Combines times or areas without limits. |
| Coordination and artifact | Artifact addresses the task with owners and verification points. | Lists actions without coordination or missing information. |
| Access and dignity | Checks exclusion and explains mitigation. | Primarily prioritizes team convenience. |
| Improvement | Shows how evidence changed a decision. | Declares success without checking assumptions. |
