In November 2014, Development Initiatives was commissioned by the UK’s Department for International Development (DFID) to conduct a mapping and political economy study on the production and utilisation of humanitarian evidence in Kenya, Uganda and within relevant East African institutions.
Development Initiatives works to end extreme poverty by 2030 by making data and information on poverty and resource flows transparent, accessible and useable. We help decision-makers use information to increase their impact for the poorest people in the most sustainable way. We work at every level: supporting local partners in East Africa and Nepal to use data, informing national and regional decision-making through analysis and presentation of information, and providing technical and political support that can help improve international systems.
