In 2023, the demand for humanitarian data reached a record level as the world contended with the effects of war, climate shocks, food insecurity, displacement and disease in crises ranging from Gaza to Sudan. At the same time, data availability across priority humanitarian operations remained steady. Organizations continued to produce and share valuable data about the needs and response to the world's most vulnerable populations, even in the face of restricted access due to violent conflict.
