Case Study: UNICEF in Lebanon achieves near real-time crisis response reporting with ActivityInfo

UNICEF cuts reporting from a month to minutes with ActivityInfo

UNICEF in Lebanon faced significant challenges in monitoring its large-scale crisis response programs due to fragmented data collection from over 45 partners. The process of synthesizing reports from different formats and sources was slow and inefficient, often taking up to a month and resulting in an inaccurate, delayed overview that hindered strategic planning and intervention. To address this, they implemented ActivityInfo as a unified monitoring and reporting platform.

Using ActivityInfo, UNICEF and its partners could report on the same indicators simultaneously, providing a near real-time overview of all activities. The solution drastically reduced reporting time from a month to minutes, improved data accuracy through validation and user permissions, and enabled efficient data extraction for analysis. This reliable data became the foundation for setting baselines and targets, directly impacting and improving strategic programming, planning, and budgeting for the Lebanon Crisis Response Plan.
