Effective and accountable humanitarian response must be based on solid evidence and an accurate understanding of need. The Reference Module for Cluster Coordination at Country Level (IASC: 2015) outlines six core functions of clusters, one of which clearly articulates that it is the responsibility of the clusters to inform humanitarian decision making by preparing, coordinating and conducting joint needs assessments and analyses.
