The Permanent Contingency Commission of Honduras (Spanish: Comisión Permanente de Contingencias, COPECO), is an entity created to coordinate public and private disaster relief efforts in the framework of the National Risk Management System of Honduras (Spanish: Sistema Nacional de Gestión de Riesgos).[1]
COPECO is part of a Central American network of governmental disaster relief agencies known as the Coordination Center for the Prevention of Natural Disasters in Central America (Spanish: Centro de Coordinación para la Prevención de los Desastres Naturales en América Central, CEPREDENAC). CEPREDENAC was created in the context of the Central American Integration System (SICA). [2]
