Organizational Update: Shared Services

A key challenge for ICT groups in the NGO community is that they are significantly underfunded, compared with ICT groups in industry often they are limited to “keeping the lights on,” with little left over for improving program delivery and innovation.

Program in Action: Emergency Response

In January 2011, I had the opportunity to visit Pakistan to perform a study on the use of ICT in response to the devastating monsoon floods that had hit the country last summer. Having been a first responder for a number of years, attending floods in Africa, hurricanes in the U.S. and earthquakes in Haiti and Indonesia, it was an interesting experience to visit a country six months after the events started and see the progress of the relief efforts.

Program in Action: Connectivity

The Horn of Africa Crisis is now considered to be the worst humanitarian disaster of the 21st century. The far-reaching, on-going drought in the region devastated agriculture, livestock and communities from Djibouti and Ethiopia to Kenya and Somalia, pushing many to leave their homes to find safe haven in a massive refugee camp. The camp complex in Dadaab, Kenya has taken in over 400,000 refugees, with thousands of new arrivals every day. Many people walk for close to 20 days to make it to the camps. Some mothers are even forced to abandon their children, who are too weak to continue on the trek and are left on the side of the road.
The effects of the crisis are amplified by the lack of proper sanitation, health services and food. An estimated 15 million individuals, including over 400,000 children, require assistance before the situation improves.

Organizational Update: Connectivity

Seeking creative solutions to improve the quality and cost of connectivity in remote parts of the developing world was the topic of the first conversation between Edward G. Happ and Dipak Basu ten years ago. Addressing that problem in a very different way was NetHope’s initial challenge, and their breakthrough concept was that pooling the collective talents of multiple NGOs could offer better connectivity solutions faster, cheaper and more effectively. This simple idea was appealing enough for the seven international NGOs to found NetHope in 2001.

Those groups include NetHope, the United Nations Office for Humanitarian Affairs (UN OCHA), the Stand-By Volunteer Task Force and a group of UN volunteers led by Andrej Verity.
