Set up the WASH sector operational website

Depending on the type of emergency, a WASH sector operational website can be hosted by OCHA or UNHCR, or both. This website contains all relevant WASH sector response information such as assessments, maps, reports, meeting information etc. Instead of creating a new website, the IMO can be given permission to upload Cluster information on the OCHA site (https://humanitarianresponse.info) on a specific WASH sector dedicated page, which is the recommended approach. On top of the tools provided in this section, see https://humanitarianresponse.info/help for comprehensive instructions on how to upload information to Hr.info. The IMO can also work closely with the UNHCR IMO to upload information on the UNHCR site if applicable for that situation (http://data.unhcr.org).

Tip
titleTips
  • Add a link to the operational website to your email signature.
  • Register on the website to receive alerts to certain content (assessments, maps etc.).
  • If possible, use the contact tool to keep contacts up to date, in this way the master contact list can remain on the site without duplications and partners can register ‘in’ and ‘out’ of the emergency.
  • Be aware of making all information public (consult with Cluster Coordinator and IMWG before uploading data that may be of a sensitive nature)
