Humanitarian Research Hub
As Ukraine’s humanitarian response and recovery efforts expand, the need for evidence-based research and analysis is growing. However, data generated by various actors remains fragmented and insufficiently tailored for practical use in communities and at the programme level.
The initiative aims to establish an innovative Ukrainian Humanitarian Research Hub that will generate high-quality data and analysis on humanitarian response, social development, and societal resilience to support actors in the humanitarian and social sectors.
The Hub will seek to turn data into knowledge that informs effective programmes, policies and decision-making at both national and local levels.
We believe humanitarian assistance should be evidence-based. That is why the Hub is developing common research standards with experts and partners — to ensure that every finding is reliable and can inform decision-making.
