Every year, around 3,000 extremely efficient humanitarian programs are operated to tackle the most severe challenges (WASH, Food Security, Diseases, Human rights). Those programs are measured based on 5 main indicators: efficiency, effectiveness, impact, sustainability, and relevance. We are currently developing a global expectation algorithm that calculate what should be the contribution of each person, based on his/her country of living and annual income, to the global humanitarian budget.
