Each year, this initiative takes stock of how localization moves from words to action in Ukraine’s humanitarian response – identifying progress, gaps, and opportunities for deeper change. The third phase of the research was carried out by the NGO Resource Center (NGORC) in partnership with InfoSapiens and the Humanitarian Advisory Group (HAG), with financial support from ActionAid, CAFOD, Christian Aid, and Helvetas, as well as self-funding from NGORC.
The study applies a contextualized localization measurement approach and framework, originally developed by HAG and the Pacific Islands Association of Non-Governmental Organizations (PIANGO), as a universal method for tracking localization progress at country and regional levels.
