How can we harness community crisis intelligence for better prevention and response?
This interactive workshop will focus on accelerating the uptake of digital tools that leverage input from crisis-affected communities for better crisis preparedness and response. By crowdsourcing data and experiences from local people at scale, these technologies can transform humanitarian operations to be more timely and appropriate to local needs. But there are several known barriers to their adoption. During the session, participants can learn how these tools can help to address existing operational challenges and sectoral priorities.
