Producing an overview of humanitarian actions funded by SIDA

In 2016 and again in 2020, IRMA (via Lezlie Moriniere) was tasked via the SIDA HelpDesk (managed by Saferworld and GEG) to produce an overview of humanitarian actions funded by SIDA. This quantitative and qualitative mapping of 2018 trends gleaned systematically from the reporting of 26 partners (over 64 documents) and compared them to 2015.

Three volumes were produced including an examination of SIDA’s 1. Partner profiles, 2. Sector snapshots and 3. Goal results. The synthesis report highlights SIDA’s humanitarian results from an investment of 3540 mSEK across 14 contexts and explores how to enhance future reporting and compare and consolidate learning.
