Evaluate UN budgets and programmes as an AI Secretary-General

An adviser to your AI Secretary-General briefs you on each programme's purpose, beneficiaries, performance indicators and issues, based solely on the original IATI text.

Based on that, you can judge for yourself, as a world citizen, whether the budget is appropriate, should be kept, or should be rebuilt.

Comprising the Horn of Africa and the Great Lakes, Eastern Africa is a region in which emergencies tend to be protracted and large scale, resulting in significant displacement and other needs. For this reason, Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) maintains country presences in Burundi, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Somalia, South Sudan and Sudan. The Southern Africa region has fewer protracted humanitarian crises, but is prone to drought, floods and cyclones. OCHA does not have country offices in the region but has a Humanitarian Advisory Team in Madagascar. OCHA works closely with local authorities and partners to bolster national disaster preparedness in these countries and assists response both through surge and remote support. Whether we are mobilizing relief money or raising awareness of forgotten crises, it is our mandate to keep world attention focused on humanitarian issues. For this reason, we produce and release timely regional reporting and analytical products to strengthen the humanitarian case and highlight the needs of the most vulnerable in the region
