Contribution to Ground Truth Solutions 2017
By supporting Ground Truth, Switzerland strives to ensure people and communities vulnerable to risk and affected by disaster, conflict or poverty, do influence and have access to quality assistance and can hold organizations accountable. Ground Truth believes that the best way to plan humanitarian programmes and gauge their impact is to include the perspective of people at the receiving end of aid, and has set-up tools to do so.

| Contexte |
It is widely recognized that humanitarian actors need to be more accountable for what they do and what they say they will deliver during a humanitarian response. In humanitarian action, globally, the call for more involvement of people affected by crises is an acknowledgement that not doing so often results in programmes that fail to adequately address priority needs. Over the past two years, “putting people at the center” has become a key topic in discussions related to the humanitarian sector. As such, both the World Humanitarian Summit (WHS) and the Grand Bargain have called for a “participation revolution” in humanitarian response. |
| Objectifs | By 2020, Ground Truth’s goal is to become the leading organization in responsive and adaptive management, providing advice and developing the capacity of humanitarian actors to systematically bring the voice of affected people into all levels of humanitarian action, from projects and programmes to sectors and response-wide interventions. Ground Truth aims to be used by all humanitarian actors. |
| Groupes cibles | All humanitarian practitioners and stakeholders. |
| Effets à moyen terme | Working alongside other humanitarian-to-humanitarian organizations, by the end of the phase, it is expected that Ground Truth will come closer to playing a significant role in transforming the sector from supply-driven to demand-led. This will have resulted in greater effectiveness and efficiency across the humanitarian space. |

Principaux résultats attendus: From 2017 to 2020, Ground Truth will be working specifically on a more developed portfolio with seven new projects scheduled to start, a more varied core donor base, new partnerships, the conception of trainings, improved Feedback of Commons tools, advocacy and representation of Ground Truth in all relevant fora. Principaux résultats antérieurs: In the previous phases, the Ground Truth team has developed a strong pipeline of projects with some of the most significant players in the humanitarian field. Ground Truth has been able to focus on specific emergencies such as Ebola in Sierra Leone, post-earthquake recovery in Nepal, and follow-through on a pilot in Pakistan, as well as the development of operational partnerships with International Rescue Committee IRC, Danish Church Aid and Save the Children. |
