IMPACT Initiatives helps make better decisions in humanitarian and development work. We gather and analyze data to understand the needs of people in difficult situations. Our goal is to ensure that aid reaches those who need it most.

WHAT WE DO

  • Identify needs: We find out who needs help the most and what kind of help they need.
  • Support aid organizations: We provide important information to aid groups so they can act quickly and effectively.
  • Work with communities: We talk directly to people affected by crises to understand their needs and make sure their voices are heard.

OUR WORK IN ACTION

Our findings help inform critical decision-making for instance in:

  • Democratic Republic of Congo: We assess the needs of displaced people around Goma.
  • Occupied Palestinian Territories: We evaluate the damage and needs of the local population.
  • Sudan: We monitor malnutrition and food security issues.
  • Syria: We explore new areas for humanitarian aid due to political changes.
