The humanitarian sector has made significant strides to support more localised action with various frameworks and tools, but there’s still a gap in understanding how these approaches impact affected communities. Over the past three years, the Humanitarian Advisory Group has been exploring ways to measure the impact of localisation at the community level. A Pathway to Localisation Impact: Laying the Foundations, introduced a model to support humanitarian actors to better define and understand the impact of their localisation practices on crisis-affected populations. This model was tested with organisations in Pakistan, Bangladesh, and the Philippines. In this episode of I Think You’re On Mute, host Beth Eggleston talks to Aaftab Ullah and Zaki Ullah, members of the partnering research team that tested the model in Pakistan.
