The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) is one of the two countries chosen to pilot the Good Humanitarian Donorship (GHD) initiative. A set of indicators reflecting the GHD principles was developed for the evaluation of the DRC pilot to take place at the end of 2005. A baseline survey was commissioned by the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) to provide information on the status of donor funding and behavior in 2004 in order to measure change in 2005. A team of independent consultants conducted the baseline survey through interviews and data collection with major humanitarian actors in the DRC and donor representatives and UN organizations in Geneva and donor capitals. This report was originally issued in December 2004. It was subsequently updated, at the request of the Good Humanitarian Donorship (GHD) Implementation Group in Geneva, to reflect final funding figures for the year 2004.
