Ground Truth Solutions

Ground Truth Solutions (GTS) is an international non-governmental organisation that helps people affected by crises influence the design and implementation of aid. Our goal is to make their perceptions the touchstone and driver of aid effectiveness. To achieve this, we champion the views of people affected by crises wherever decisions about aid are made. We believe that communities facing crisis should have more of a say in how aid is provided, and a greater influence on the global aid system. GTS works with crisis-affected communities to explore whether they see the assistance they receive as relevant, effective and fair, to what extent they trust aid actors, and whether they feel able to recover from crises. We also work with them to identify how things could be done better and engage in joint advocacy, supporting them to hold aid providers to account.
