Protracted disasters: assessment registry tool
During 2023, Ethiopia faced multiple emergencies, including conflict in the Tigray region and severe drought conditions. This resulted in violence, displacement, and a dire need for humanitarian assistance.
ERT partnered with an international aid organization that coordinates humanitarian efforts on a large scale. The ERT created a tool for coordination among humanitarian actors, ensuring efficient and effective response to emergencies in Ethiopia.
With the ERT’s support, our partner now has a centralized tool for their missions, assisting them to coordinate over 500 organizations in the Country.
