GDHO is a global compendium of organisations that provide aid in humanitarian crises. The database includes basic organisational and operational information on these humanitarian providers, which include international non-governmental organisations (grouped by federation), national NGOs that deliver aid within their own borders, UN humanitarian agencies, and the International Red Cross and Red Crescent movements. All the organisations included in the database have responded to humanitarian needs in at least one emergency context, individually or in partnership with other organisations, even if their stated mission is not strictly humanitarian. Not included are NGOs devoted to development, human rights, or political causes, or that do not work in emergency settings.

The first set of data is secondary data on child exploitation in Zimbabwe that the project collected from the NGO partner, CLZ. The data was collected through a 24 hour helpline and is in the form of summaries of the conversations held with the individuals who called CLZ to report cases of child abuse and exploitation.

The second set of data is secondary data that we collected from our NGO partner organisation, LJI. This is based on the organisation’s human trafficking interception work in Zimbabwe, which involves placing monitors at strategic transit points to identify and stop trafficking as it occurs.

This is an exploratory project which involves analysis of secondary analysis of NGO data on human trafficking in order to map the human trafficking phenomenon in Zimbabwe. It is a collaboration with the Bindura University of Science Education and working in partnership with one local NGO, Childline; one International NGO, Love Justice International and one UN Migration Agency, The International Organization for Migration – Zimbabwe.
