Background:

In consortium with Urban-A, Action Aid and OXFAM, we study the different kinds of information people access based on their socio-economic, and migrant and displaced identities, and how that links with information and support available and provided by the UN, (I)NGOs, local authorities, and civil society actors. We aim to do this in Tripoli (Lebanon), Patna, its adjoining districts, New Delhi (India), and Kampala (Uganda) where humanitarian crises and displacement are critical issues and efforts have been made to harness the importance of social and communications media.
