UNHCR Innovation
The UNHCR Innovation Service aims to support a culture of creativity and collaboration across the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) and beyond. They support innovative tools and learning environments, helping contribute to improvements in how UNHCR works. They believe humanitarian responses must continue to utilise an innovative approach to the growing humanitarian needs of today, and more critically— the future. As the world becomes increasingly complex, humanitarian responses must become more adaptable and agile, adapting to new systems, technologies, and innovations to be fit for purpose; challenging the status quo.
UNHCR Innovation have supported the organisation since 2017 providing logistical support to the organisation in Jordan and Angola. We have also been writing a blog series for the service detailing our experiences as a grassroots organisation which can be found here.
