Activating humanitarian data for rapid response efforts: The need for humanitarian aid is enormous and urgent, with over 300M people needing assistance globally. Response organizations are resource-constrained, and the first 24 hours of response are critical – yet sharing information and data and making sense of it to coordinate response often takes far longer than that window. The Humanitarian Data Insights Project (HDIP) overcomes these challenges and provides a model of responsible GenAI use for the nonprofit sector. Attendees will learn how a collaboration led by DataKind and Save the Children has created a model for “combining meaningful data meaningfully” to inspire action through a suite of three products: Data Recipes AI, Humanitarian AI Assistant, and a metadata prediction tool and the potential these products have for widespread positive impact.
