Organization

iMMAP Inc. is an international nonprofit organisation that provides information management services to humanitarian and development organizations. Through information management, we help our partners target assistance to the world’s most vulnerable populations.

Background

iMMAP Inc.’s present project is designed to strengthen the information management capacities of the Somalia Explosive Management Authority (SEMA). Earlier in late 2023, iMMAP Inc. introduced the Humanitarian Information Support Team (HIST) in Somalia. This demand-driven and centralised Information Management request system simplifies the support provided to local and international humanitarian actors involved in the Somalia Response. The initiative centred on the establishment of an Information Management Unit that supports and collaborates with humanitarian actors, including UN Agencies, NGOs and INGOs working across various clusters and sectors, including UNOCHA, Food Security and Livelihood, Nutrition and WASH clusters, to enhance data collection, validation, analysis, and reporting. This initiative included the capacity building of the partners, development of interactive dashboards, spatial analysis, and mapping to support processes like the Humanitarian Needs Overview (HNO) and Humanitarian Response Needs Plan (HRNP). In the first half of 2024, the project has facilitated the increased involvement of stakeholders, including the Operational Cell (OC), Area Based Coordination structures (ABCs), Somalia Disaster Management Agency (SoDMA), and Somalia NGO Consortium (SNC). This expansion has enhanced efforts to meet the urgent needs of Somalia’s vulnerable populations amidst the ongoing crisis.
