In early 2025, IFRC and GTS started a joint project to enhance accountability systems in humanitarian operations in Ethiopia. This will be achieved through the development of an evidence-based tool to measure the quality, relevance and effectiveness of humanitarian operations from the community perspective and people’s priorities for action. Insights will not only be used to improve future operations, but also to refine early action and emergency response strategies. As part of this project, GTS is looking for an independent service provider to conduct a quantitative survey and a series of community dialogues in two zones having received humanitarian assistance in the last 12 months. The aim is to gather initial insight into community perspectives of humanitarian assistance and to identify key themes and priorities for ensuring and assessing program quality in the future.
