“We couldn’t believe it, we saw depression and anxiety levels reduced by 80% among children and teenagers!”
Hola! My name is Darwin Carvallo, and I am an Ecuadorian Red Cross youth volunteer and one of the final winners of the Limitless Youth Innovation Academy. I’d like to share my innovation journey with you through our project, RUAH, and tell you how our innovation impacted and transformed our community!
Where to start with your team’s data journey?
We’ve hosted data playbook workshops with avocados, limes, oranges, and a bag of peanuts: You can learn about data quality standards, decision-making with data, and basic data analysis,… and have snacks!
“As raw materials, we used non-disposable manufactured products. The initiative was a tremendous success!”
Have you ever turned your small idea into a local innovation? Here’s my innovation journey with the IFRC Limitless program to promote employment opportunities and environmental protection in my community during the pandemic.
Why do we need a glocalized development? Way to decentralize aid
It has been six years since the humanitarian agenda has reached a milestone after the UN Secretary General’s call for turning locally-led humanitarian action at the World Humanitarian Summit in 2016. This was a call to change the function of global humanitarian system as the international humanitarian actors are falling back to meet up with the increasing needs derived from protracted natural hazards and long-lasting armed conflicts. As the costs of services increase and the high level of risks restrict international actors’ actions, aid has come to a bottleneck.
Digitalisation in Humanitarian Action: the path forward
As crucial key enablers in delivering effective and timely humanitarian aid to the people in need, digital technologies allow aid organisations to improve collaboration and communication while enabling the delivery of aid more efficiently; rendering a tailored emergency response based on the needs of the beneficiaries. In this scope, digitalisation is one of the Movement’s prioritized topics because it is rapidly shaping how our humanitarian operations and assistance activities are carried out; therefore, impacting how the humanitarian sector is serving the aforementioned affected populations. To stay up-to-date and relevant in different contexts, the humanitarian sector is testing and adopting digital technologies on a multitude of different levels in order to improve the speed, efficiency, and effectiveness of humanitarian operations.
Baking Social Impact Business into Sustainable Humanitarian Financing Model
How can we better co-design and prototype emerging technology with communities at the center? Over the past year, Nepal Red Cross, Cameroon Red Cross, Nesta UK, and IFRC Solferino Academy explored how emerging technology, specifically Artificial Intelligence (AI), could support the effective delivery of humanitarian work by involving communities in the design in two very different contexts. This project was done during a global pandemic and ongoing emergencies with the everyday complexities of humanitarian response.
Intelligence collective de crise : Aperçus et leçons clés du Cameroun et du Népal
comment pouvons-nous mieux co-concevoir et prototyper les technologies émergentes en plaçant les communautés au cœur du processus ? Au cours de l’année écoulée, la Croix-Rouge du Népal, la Croix-Rouge du Cameroun, Nesta UK et l’Académie de Solferino de la FICR ont entrepris cette réflexion. Les équipes ont exploré comment les technologies émergentes, en particulier l’intelligence artificielle (IA), pouvaient contribuer à l’efficacité du travail humanitaire en impliquant les communautés dans la conception, dans deux contextes très différents. Ce projet a été réalisé pendant une pandémie mondiale, avec diverses situations d’urgence en cours et les complexités quotidiennes de la réponse humanitaire.
