Introduction

The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) is working to create a humanitarian community data platform that will be accessible from ReliefWeb. The platform will include data from multiple sources and from multiple countries and crises at various levels of disaggregation. We are committed to placing users at the center of our design efforts; this initial survey has been developed to get a broad sense of your needs and perceptions. We will soon launch an alpha instance for our data work in the ReliefWeb Labs space (http://labs.reliefweb.int/) and hope that you will stay engaged.
