The assistance to both individuals (direct and indirect victims) and communities may be recorded with this new object in version 6.0. Assistance is the action that is done for assisting victims. Monitoring of assistance projects may be done with the existing Task module.

Assistance is closely linked to the victimization cause. The assistance can be provided to:

  • an individual;
  • a family / extended family;
  • a group of victims;
  • a community.

The cause and needs assessment of individuals is entered in the Victim. In the future similar subobject for cause and needs assessment of community may be added to the Location item.
