The platform was introduced by the Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Reduction, Dr Bernard Doro, during a three-day workshop.

He said the government wants future interventions to be guided by accurate data rather than assumptions.


According to the ministry, the new system will serve as a central hub for gathering information, tracking results and supporting policy decisions.

It is also expected to improve coordination among agencies involved in social welfare and poverty reduction.


Officials believe the project will strengthen accountability and help direct support to those who need it most.

The launch comes as the government faces growing calls to tackle rising living costs, unemployment and economic hardship.
