The UN Resident Coordinators Office (RCO) of Sri Lanka, supported by the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific (ROAP), developed a simple 3W (“Who does What Where”) template. It evolved into 4W and the UN standard reporting platform for the Humanitarian Country Team members such as Sri Lanka Red Cross, Sarvodaya Movement, Oxfam, WorldVision, and so on.
