Information Management | 1. Background of IM project
Background and Objectives
• Current IM system functional but requires improvement to meet the
needs
• RRT members build on existing IMO
• Some tools have been developed: GNC website
• Gaps in global standards guidance and systems to support IM at
country and global level
GNC strategic plan 2014-2016: IM/KM strategic area of priority
GNC IM toolkit
Strengthen GNC capacity to support National Cluster’s IM functions
Information Management | 1. Background of IM project
Expected Outcomes
• Desk Review  Recommendations on how to develop the toolkit
• Development of the toolkit
• Development of a training package for the IMOs
Information Management | 1. Background of IM project
Progress so far
Literature review and interviews
Recommendations:
 Conceptual framework
 Adapt & create tools and guidance
 Use external resources (OCHA; IASC; WASH IM Toolkit...)
 Develop and keep up to date a data base with all tools available
Outcomes:
• Tools data base
• Conceptual framework

What is Information Management?
Humanitarian information management is the systematic process of
collecting, collating, storing, processing, verifying, and analysing
data and information, and disseminating relevant information to
humanitarian stakeholders.
IM cycle
Information Management | 2. Nutrition IM Toolkit Conceptual
framework
Why is IM so important?
• Information management support effective humanitarian response
in emergencies
• Developing systems and tools
• To capture key indicators in under-nutrition, IYCF, MND;
• To assess programme coverage and quality
• To enable effective coordination and link the different phases of HPC

Goal
To provide tools and
guidance to IMOs,
Nutrition Country
Clusters and partners
to properly collect and
manage data during
emergencies to
support effective
coordination of the
response
Objectives of the toolkit:
• To provide tools and guidance for
preparedness (include contingency and
capacity building)
• To provide tools and guidance to assess the
needs (for decision making)
• To provide tools and guidance to assess the
capacities (planning and strategy
development)
• To provide tools and guidance to monitor
the response (service delivery; agreed
timeframes formats; reports)
• To provide tools and guidance for
coordination

Analysis
Group Work
A. Looking at the time line
1/ What information is needed in nutrition ?
2/ When do we need each information?
B. Review the toolkit categories
Relevance; example of tools;
Do all categories meet the needs and fulfil the gaps (what gaps are missing?)
