HaitiVOICES

An interactive website was set up in days following this devastating disaster to encourage all response agencies in Haiti - whether local or international - to post current and anticipated activities and needs. All collected data are reported on the site in real time. Reflecting the United Nations (UN)'s cluster approach and 3W ("Who is Doing What Where") format, data are categorised by geographic location, cluster, and description of current and proposed activities and gaps. HaitiVOICES does not create redundancy and works in collaboration with other groups in Haiti to disseminate current and anticipated sectoral needs and contact information, and a means to augment existing data to facilitate information sharing and strategic collaboration, post-catastrophe.
Emergency, Risk Management.
HaitiVOICES is supported by the Harvard Humanitarian Initiative.
