The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) has a Centre for Humanitarian Data in The Hague, the Netherlands which is focused on increasing the use and impact of data in the humanitarian sector. The Centre has four workstreams: data services, data responsibility, data literacy and predictive analytics. An area of emerging interest in the humanitarian sector is data science and predictive analytics, which involves using machine learning and the application of statistical modelling to answer questions about what will happen in a particular humanitarian context. The Centre has invested in this area through research and its 2018 and 2019 Data Fellows Programme.
