Disaster Accountability Project (DAP) is a nonprofit organization focused on improving the effectiveness, efficiency, and equity of disaster preparedness, response, relief, and recovery through oversight, transparency, advocacy, and public education. Its work centers on surveillance and evaluation of disaster relief efforts via SmartResponse.org, investigative reporting, and public education, with an emphasis on public participation and long-term oversight to foster better disaster outcomes. The organization serves donors, local organizations, and the broader humanitarian community by connecting data to actions and informing stakeholders about relief operations and accountability. Based in the United States, DAP positions itself within the civic and social sectors as an independent watchdog for disaster relief and humanitarian aid, aiming to enhance accountability and transparency in disaster operations. A notable development is the launch of SmartResponse.org in early 2020, which aims to improve disaster relief effectiveness by linking donors to locally operating organizations.
