Programme
0:00 Introduction, Adam Moe Fejerskov and Dane Fetterer
Segment 1: Research perspectives on localizing humanitarian innovation
0:18:16 Perspectives on local innovation: presenting experiences from Elrha’s Humanitarian Innovation Fund (HIF), Anna Skeels
0:29:06 Local actors and humanitarian responses, Lydia Tanner
Segment 2: Perspectives from the sector and from the field
0:47:09 Opening doors to the humanitarian response market for local innovators, Charlene Cabot and Joshua Businge
1:11:47 Transforming the future of humanitarian aid: innovation, impact and sustainability, Rasmus Stuhr Jakobsen
1:30:40 Discussions
Innovations, from emerging technology to radical methodologies of change, represent a growing emphasis for humanitarian and development actors. Too often, however, innovations are developed in the global North and brought to local contexts, based on perceived needs but without involving target groups. So how do we make sure that innovations in the sector not only reflect local needs, but build upon and develop local perceptions, competencies and skills?
At this seminar DIIS and Save the Children tackles the issue of how we link local needs and solutions with global ones in ways that foster indigenous innovation - moving from isolated top-down projects to solutions that are both locally sustainable and may be scaled. Whether we call it human-centered design, indigenous or participatory innovation, the aim is to put local systems at the heart of the innovation process.
The seminar will be a combination of local experiences, conceptual discussions and participant inputs on the challenges of humanitarian and development innovation.
