Published purpose
Established in 2009, the Assessment Capacities Project (ACAPS) is a consortium of three major international NGOs – HelpAge International, Merlin, and Norwegian Refugee Council – whose objective is to strengthen and support capacity within the humanitarian system to conduct improved coordinated multi-sector assessments before, during, or after crises. CIDA support to ACAPS will contribute to the development of innovative needs assessment methodologies and tools, the training of practitioners, a roster of deployable assessment experts, and an improved evidence-base for decision-making during humanitarian crises.
