The H2H Fund

The H2H Fund is a financing mechanism that disburses targeted funding to members of the H2H Network to provide specialized services to enhance efficiency, effectiveness and accountability in humanitarian response.

Open source technical services have the potential to improve the quality and impact of humanitarian responses. But too often, funding mechanisms are slow, reactive and centralized. Unnecessary delays impact responses and often shut out smaller organizations offering support needed by responders on the ground.

The network activates the H2H Fund to enable timely packages of members' integrated technical services to address gaps and meet identified needs in specific humanitarian responses. Services are available to responders at all levels.
