ABOUT
US.
We are the drive behind Agile, Accountable and Quality delivery of humanitarian aid. Employing data-driven technologies and tools, we cater critical information from hard-to-reach regions as crises unfold and urge organisations to respond through accountable and evidence-based emergency programming.
WHO WE ARE.
AQLITY is a social enterprise that propels the international humanitarian community to shift towards an agile and data-driven modus operandi indispensable for efficient and timely delivery of aid in the perpetually changing humanitarian landscape.
By leveraging technology and deep-field access, we strive to instantly cater critical data to humanitarian actors and transform the way emergency responses are designed and implemented.
Our partner portal connects local stakeholders with global funding streams and resources while also providing real-time field data and analysis of needs in the most hard-to-reach underserved areas. Our aim is to create a collaborative environment that respects local expertise and fosters responsible and sustainable capacity growth of local actors.
We partner with international aid organisations, philanthropic foundations, donor agencies and governments to drive the adoption of our platform and ensure that we are best positioned to meet the needs of frontline responders.
Our team brings together expertise in data technology, humanitarian assistance, and local civil society gathered through years of on-the ground operational experience as well as top-level leadership. We are committed to positively impacting the lives of populations affected by crises and envision a world where every individual has access to quality assistance and care, regardless of their geographical location.
We believe that AQLITY has the potential to revolutionise the delivery of humanitarian aid in hard-to-reach areas, and we look forward to cultivating partnerships and maximising our impact in the years to come.
We prompt humanitarian actors to deliver aid in more agile, accountable and quality manner.
WHAT WE DO.
AQLITY operates on three core principles that are integral to everything we do - Agility, Accountability, and Quality.
Agility is the cornerstone of our mission, strategy, and vision as we strive to be the first ones on the ground in emergency situations and gather critical data enabling immediate evidence-based delivery of humanitarian aid. We are constantly optimising our services and tools to adapt promptly to the ever-changing landscape.
Accountability is at the heart of our work. By enabling organisations to design data-driven and evidence-based programming, we contribute to increasing their accountability towards affected populations. Our focus on transparency and measurable impact ensures that resources are utilised responsibly and with maximum efficiency.
Quality is our key priority, and we always strive to achieve the best possible outcome regardless of the precarious circumstances. We are committed to excellence in operations and ensure that every intervention is impactful and dignified.

These pillars form the backbone of our four key initiatives:
NEEDS ASSESSMENTS
STAKEHOLDER MAPPING
LOCAL CAPACITY BUILDING
AQLITY PARTNER PORTAL
NEEDS ASSESSMENTS
Our tailored needs assessments tackle the challenges of timely access to critical information and subsequent aid delivery to the communities.
Focusing on vital areas like food, water, sanitation, hygiene and financial needs, our assessments yield real-time data across dynamic contexts.
​
By understanding the unique needs of hard-to-reach areas, we empower aid organizations to craft precise, evidence-based, and data-driven interventions and prompt efficient last-mile delivery while enhancing the overall accountability and impact of humanitarian assistance.
LOCAL CAPACITY BUIDLING
We offer tailored capacity-building to local actors, government emergency services, volunteer networks, NGOs, CSOs, charities by providing them free user-friendly systems that enhance operational efficiency and increase quality programming, which is vital for agile and accountable aid delivery.
​
Moreover, we assist local entities in elevating their duty of care standards and facilitate access to institutional funds, ensuring sustainable growth.
​
This holistic approach not only strengthens the organizational capacity but also empowers local entities to drive meaningful change within their communities.
STAKEHOLDER MAPPING
AQLITY takes the lead in identifying and vetting reliable local stakeholders (CSOs, Volunteer Networks, NGOs) operating in challenging terrains.
​
Our comprehensive assessment provides information on stakeholders’ capacities per operational area (admin, finance, project management), final score and ranking as well as a roadmap for capacity-development.
​
Mapping local partners, we amplify the reach of aid efforts and promote transparent collaboration between international organizations, donors, and local entities.
AQLITY PARTNER PORTAL
Our secure online platform and application enables registered organisations (donors, government agencies, INGOs and local NGOs) to access information and resources related to AQLITY’s services.
​
This collaborative space fosters information sharing among key humanitarian stakeholders, prompts new partnerships, contributes to reducing duplication, and ensures that aid is delivered with an increased degree of accountability, efficiency, and quality.
WHERE WE WORK.
AQLITY thrives in the challenging terrain of humanitarian crises, particularly in human-made conflicts and hard-to-reach areas. Our expertise lies in access negotiation, ensuring that vital data reaches underserved populations. Beyond our immediate impact, AQLITY is dedicated to sharing valuable data with NGOs, organizations, and government entities, fostering collaboration for a collective, positive influence.
Born as an informal initiative in 2018, AQLITY was a methodology used by INGOs and undertook pilot projects in Iraq, Afghanistan, Ethiopia, and Ukraine, paving the way for our independent registration. Our primary focus areas include Ukraine and the Sahel, where we aim to channel our efforts to bridge critical data gaps. AQLITY's Emergency Response Team is poised to deploy immediately to any new crises where data is needed. Get in touch if you believe AQLITY's expertise can make a difference in the context you are working in.
Our headquarters and official registration proudly call Dublin, Ireland, home. AQLITY operates as an Irish Company Limited by Guarantee (CLG), aligning with the typical registration format for charitable organisations in Ireland. AQLITY is not yet registered as a Charity in Ireland and is currently under review by the Charities Regulator.
Rather than centralising our operations in a traditional office setting, AQLITY embraces a decentralized approach. Our dedicated compliance and governance team, based in Ireland, ensures that we adhere to the highest industry standards, guaranteeing the integrity of our work.
We believe in empowering our teams on the ground, strategically positioned in-country offices, to maximize their impact in the communities we serve. This decentralized model aligns with our philosophy of fostering genuine connections and understanding in the regions where we operate, allowing us to respond swiftly and effectively to the unique challenges presented by each context.
