Welcome to the RLO Catalog

In the forced migration discourse, Refugee-Led Organizations (RLOs) are community-driven and powerful aid organizations run by and led by refugees within host countries. In RLO-Catalogue we provide a compilation of RLO portfolios which constitute systematic documentation of RLO capacities.

With a unique lens toward RLO information-related activities and needs, these portfolios lay out RLOs unique capacities to effectively seek, share, store, and manage information in three key areas of Accountability, Service Delivery, Visibility.

Refugee leaders can use this website to access a selection of RLO portfolios active in different host countries around the world. These portfolios serve as a static template that can be used for evidence generation, peer-to-peer knowledge sharing, or creating visibility of organizational capacities.

These portfolios are developed in partnership with RLOs in a four-step initiative:

1. Documentation of RLO capacities and information practices from publicly available data,
2. Systematic presentation of RLO capacities using easily accessible platforms,
3. Receiving direct feedback from RLOs regarding their portfolios,
4. Uploading portfolios that can be used as sharable tools and resources across RLOs and RLO networks.
