How does Famidi assess needs after an emergency?

Reviewed by Famidi editorial team
Direct answer

Local coordinators examine what happened, where access is possible, what people need now, what markets and services function, and what a small response can safely deliver.

What this means in practice

News reports explain scale but do not replace street-level assessment.

Needs can change between fundraising and arrival.

Famidi should document the decision without exposing precise locations or identities when that creates risk.

How a small local response stays honest

Famidi uses local assessment and flexible program delivery to address a reachable gap after floods, earthquakes, displacement, severe weather, or another urgent crisis. Public reporting stays proportional to the part of the response Famidi actually completed.

Crisis figures change quickly. Dates, locations, and source publication dates matter; an older statistic should remain historical context rather than being presented as the current total.
