style='font-size:12.0pt'>The international relief program implemented in <st1:place
w:st="on">East Timor</st1:place> in 1999-2000 has been hailed as a tremendous
success, yet a number of post-conflict researchers have identified the failure
of the emergency response to involve the Timorese in the early stages of the
relief effort as a significant issue.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span lang=EN-GB
style='font-size:12.0pt'>This chapter will explain how the events prior to the
1999 Ballot, as well as the traumatic events of September 1999 affected the
Timorese response to the emergency relief program. The globalisation of NGO
networks and the international emergency funding mechanisms created a rush for
the donor dollar and an influx of humanitarian personnel who were not familiar
with local history and culture is illustrated. The experience of Caritas <st1:place
w:st="on"><st1:country-region w:st="on">Australia</st1:country-region></st1:place>’s
East Timor Program is used to analyse how this resulted in the marginalisation
of a local partner organisation. It is argued that accountability to the
international network overrode accountability to the partner organisation. In
addition, the limited local capacities to participate in the relief
distribution mechanisms were not understood by the emergency specialists.
Appropriate action was not taken to build local capacity. The conclusion draws
out three key lessons for emergency programming that arise from the <st1:place
w:st="on">East Timor</st1:place> experience.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
