We need to borrow from traditional practices, integrate modern technologies in our line of work. If we don’t, our ground will continue to crack, leaving 2 groups, 1 with traditional methods and 1 with tech enabled methods. This cannot be sustainable for humanitarian sector.

🚀It's day 3 at #PwaniInnovationWeek and we're diving into the future of humanitarian aid! The focus is on how cutting-edge technology can revolutionize our response strategies.

When innovators switch between solutions and products, they miss out on the growth aspect. They loose sustainability and unable to scale, hence not entirely successful. To commercialize, they need to focus fully on that ONE product. #PIW2024 @iome254 @icha_krc @KenyaRedCross
I.O.Me Innovation Labs@iome254

Priyanka Patel, Innovation Manager at @KenyaRedCross emphasized: "Innovators who aspire to create a lasting impact should aim to commercialize at least one product that can sustain them for a decade or more. Discover your path to resilience." 🌍💡
