Abstract

The world literature experiences the deficit of scientific publications illustrating the problems of humanitarian logistics from the perspective of regional association. Thus, the article refers to infrastructural aspects of humanitarian logistics development that are characterized by regional convergence. The unification of activities requires a wide scope of investments. The précised preparation, efficient reaction as well as effective reconstruction plays a key role in undertaken activities. Infrastructure determinants refers to transportation systems, energy policy, ecological aspects and general logistics ratios. Therefore, the research problem consists of two questions. The first one is: what kind of infrastructural determinants have an impact on humanitarian logistics development? The second question is: what is the role of the regional community during natural disasters? The methodology of the article consists of a multivariate data analysis. The results underline the role of coordinated, integrated and internationalized humanitarian supply chain that is configured at the regional level in ASEAN.

Keywords: humanitarian logistics, infrastructure, determinants, development.
