There are more than 25 de-occupied communities and over 250 settlements in the Mykolaiv and Kherson oblasts. Each of them has needs.

The LINK mechanism helps identify unmet and unnoticed needs, verify them from multiple sources, and find those who can help. It makes humanitarian response more transparent for both communities and humanitarian aid providers.

Components of monitoring and managing needs

Information gathering

Systematic and comprehensive collection of data on the needs of residents of settlements, as well as their verification from two or more sources.

Information processing and analysis

Monitoring experts analyse the collected data and enter it into the CRM system. Humanitarian aid providers and other interested parties have instant access to verified information through a public information panel.

CRM system management

Humanitarian aid providers can reserve a need for fulfilment. At this time, monitoring specialists see the change in the status of the need and connect the humanitarian organisation with community representatives.

Link offers user-friendly needs management solutions for both humanitarian aid providers and community representatives
