Donors have agreed to fund humanitarian assistance according to needs. We studied if project applications to a major donor, and the subsequent funding decisions for humanitarian health projects contained needs assessment data. In 2003, a total of 258 million SEK (37 million USD) was allocated by Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida) to 38 humanitarian health projects.
