Its primary aim is to efficiently manage and organize data from various types of needs assessments conducted by different entities within a country. Acting as a coordination tool, it facilitates the sharing of information and enhances the planning of future needs assessments, thereby identifying gaps and preventing duplication of efforts. The key functions and purposes of an assessment registry include: Coordination : the assessment registry facilitates coordination of needs assessments among actors, as it allows everyone to see what sectors, population groups and/or geographic areas have already been covered by assessments thereby, avoiding duplication of efforts, and identifying gaps in the assessment coverage. Information Sharing : through this centralized database, it’s easier for the humanitarian actors to find assessments reports and data covering areas of interest for their programing. Data Management: It serves as a repository for storing assessment-related data, including assessment tools and results. It also allows access to historical assessment information. OCHA and Clusters’ Responsibilities OCHA is responsible for creating and maintaining the Assessment Registry database, managing the data, training partners to use it, and creating information products based on the contents of the database. Moreover, as chair of the Assessment Working Group, OCHA is responsible for using the information from AR to support the coordination of assessments. Clusters and partner organizations are responsible for contributing information and regularly updating the Assessment Registry with the appropriate metadata related to all assessments conducted in their domain.
