Founded in 2010 and
headquartered in Geneva, IMPACT Initiatives is a leading applied research
organization and the largest independent provider of data in crisis-affected
contexts. Through our initiatives—REACH, AGORA, and PANDA—we enable
humanitarian and other aid actors to make better, evidence-based decisions by
delivering timely, relevant, and methodologically rigorous data and analysis.
Our extensive presence across crisis-contexts allows us to collect data
directly from crisis-affected people wherever needed, including among the most
vulnerable and hard-to-reach.
IMPACT takes an
initiative-based approach to structuring our programming. Each initiative has a
specific aim, operational model, and portfolio of solutions.
- REACH strengthens
evidence-based humanitarian decision-making through efficient data
collection, management, and analysis – before, during, and after an
emergency.
- AGORA promotes
localised and multi-sectoral aid action in support of the recovery and
stabilisation of crisis-affected communities, in partnership with local
stakeholders.
- PANDA improves
the impact of humanitarian and development interventions through programme
design, assessments, and monitoring & evaluation.
OUR MISSION
To shape practices and
influence policies in humanitarian and development settings in order to
positively impact individuals and communities. We enable better and more
effective decision-making by generating and promoting knowledge, tools and
best-practices for humanitarian and development stakeholders. We believe that
by understanding settlements through the lens of community dynamics, governance
structures and socio-economic relationships, we can positively impact the lives
of people, improve communities’ development pathways and contribute to a fairer
world.
OUR VISION
To act as a catalyst
for change of aid practices and policies in order to sustainably impact
individuals and their communities.
OUR STRATEGIC FRAMEWORK 2025-2030
In 2025, we have
developed our first Strategic
Framework, covering the period 2025-2030, in close consultation with
our governance, teams and partners. Building on our 15 years of learning, this
framework guides us in setting new standards for research quality and to
provide international solidarity actors with the evidence needed to support the
most vulnerable populations in a people-centered and effective manner across
all contexts of crisis.
We have a footprint in
25+ countries, with more than 500 staff in our country offices and Geneva HQ.
Through our global team of research specialists, on average IMPACT publishes
more than 2,000 information products on a yearly basis. Furthermore, our programmes
are made possible by the contribution of hundreds of enumerators who are vital
in supporting IMPACT with data collection and field research.
Aside from ongoing
projects, IMPACT deploys its staff to sudden onset crises and disasters,
supporting evidence-based and inclusive aid planning from the very beginning of
emergencies to post-crisis environments.
Thanks to the
relevance and success of our work, IMPACT is expanding quickly. We are
continuously looking for talented new team members to join us both in the field
as well as in our HQ in Geneva.
