NGO Resource Center

NGO Resource Center is an accelerator for NGOs and a provider of direct humanitarian aid, established in 2018. Our mission is to strengthen the capacity of local and mid-sized NGOs, advocate for civil society rights, and promote core democratic values.

NGORC focuses on advocacy, capacity building,research, provision of direct assistance, and information sharing to enhance the effectiveness, efficiency, accountability, and sustainability of civil society, NGOs, and government responses to critical challenges. Key areas of work include psychological support for affected populations through consultations and support groups, assessing and tracking the progress of humanitarian response localization in Ukraine, countering gender-based violence, including conflict-related sexual violence, and collaborating with state authorities to improve response mechanisms. NGORC also prioritizes child protection by organizing training programs to prevent sexual violence and strengthening the capacity of civil society organizations through grants, audits, training sessions, workshops, and mentorship programs.

The NGO Resource Center is a proud member of ICVA, the Ukrainian Child Rights Network, the Ukrainian NGO Platform, and Alliance UA CSO.

In partnership with other organizations, NGORC actively promotes the localization agenda. We also conduct the annual “Humanitarian Localisation Baseline for Ukraine” study — a vital initiative that amplifies the voices of local actors and strengthens their role in the humanitarian response.
