Georgia: IFRC Humanitarian Emergency Appeals and DREF Funding

This dataset tracks humanitarian funding allocations for Georgia, specifically covering Emergency Appeals and Disaster Response Emergency Fund (DREF) records. Managed by the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) secretariat, the data documents financial support for both small-scale and complex disasters. The records were last updated in March 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyzing the ratio of DREF allocations to Emergency Appeals for Georgian disaster response
• Tracking humanitarian funding trends for specific disaster events in Georgia
• Auditing IFRC financial commitments to local Red Cross and Red Crescent actions

Strengths

• Official administrative data from the world's largest humanitarian network
• Distinguishes between long-term Emergency Appeals and rapid DREF funding
• Released under the CC-BY-IGO license for open humanitarian use

Limitations

• Unknown record count makes it difficult to assess historical depth
• Geographic scope is restricted to Georgia, requiring joins with global datasets for regional analysis
• Lack of column-level metadata in the primary source
