Screenshot 2026-07-27 at 10.19.31

After an independent Core Humanitarian Standard verification in 2021, World Vision developed a plan to strengthen the quality of its responses and implemented pilots in Ukraine, Moldova, Sudan and Somalia from 2022 to 2024. Self-assessments and external verifications undertaken by WVI identified 5 (five) areas to strengthen: 1) Organisational learning, 2) Environmental stewardship and management, 3) Vulnerability, inclusion and data protection, 4) Localisation & exit, and 5) Humanitarian programming capacity. 

Through the project, World Vision has developed resources and provided training to optimise their use. This grant and its associated activities are pivotal in enhancing World Vision’s humanitarian response capabilities, ensuring accountability, improving digital processes, and strengthening localisation efforts across various humanitarian contexts.
