STRESZCZENIE
The research niche is the development of efficient transport in humanitarian logistics within the Global Logistics Cluster (GLC)through diversified good practices. The objective of the article is to explain example methods of implementing transport services to achieve the goals of humanitarian logistics within the GLC framework for the years 2020-2024.
The article presents the hypothesis that the diversity of good transport practices was a condition for shaping flexibility in humanitarian logistics in that period. To achieve the objective and verify the hypothesis, desk research and document analysis were applied, using materials published by the World Food Programme (WFP) as the organisation coordinating actions within the GLC framework. The results indicate that humanitarian supply chain management within the GLC followed a process-oriented approach and relied predominantly on road transport, complemented by sea and air solutions when required.. Good practices included integrating transport with warehousing services, using public–private partnerships, and planning activities based on mode-specific checklists. Further improvements involved decentralising operations by deploying air hubs, analysing performance using key performance indicators, promoting digital and IT solutions, and ensuring consistency of operational activities with the strategic HSCM framework. The conclusions suggest that maintaining a diversified portfolio of transport good practices supports flexibility and operational resilience in cluster-based humanitarian logistics.
