Shenhar, Gili | Adamcheck, Rebecca | Hopmeier, Michael
On 25 April 2015, a 7.8 magnitude earthquake struck Nepal, causing huge damage.

This article raises points that must be examined by decision-makers before implementing delegations; these include cost effectiveness, whether it improves morale and resilience, international relations, and experience, and promotes good relationships between the two countries, and assisting their own citizens who were affected by the disaster.
