We can spend ages on brainstorming good (or bad) ideas, but without testing them, they are just concepts without any evidence to prove that they would work. So, the question to ask is not “what’s your idea?” but “how have you tried to test it?” ow.ly/X9Td50uQx59

The language used, the nomenclature, the association with technology, can make innovation the opposite of what it needs to be: it alienates and becomes inaccessible for those who want to be involved but just don’t know how. medium.com/unhcr-innovati…

We can look at big data not as the new oil but as the new green energy. It can be fully recycled and used for different purposes and to solve different problems. ow.ly/6uil50txyuX

Early innovation champions sporting the scars from years of guerilla warfare find themselves in the unusual and somewhat uncomfortable situation of being all of the sudden “mainstream” and under the spotlight. ow.ly/AT2x30o994s

Our challenge isn’t how to innovate more; our challenge is how to synthesise and understand more. Diversity and inclusion help us to do that. Fetishising technology does not. ow.ly/euQ030nHlQF

So what will the future of big data analysis and AI bring for the humanitarian field? We should imagine a future where we have understood how to augment (and not replace) the human condition by leveraging technology. ow.ly/pJEo30no61u

Developed in a ‘bubble’, many apps for refugees duplicated existing well-used communication platforms. They didn’t take into account complex issues of trust, how information (+ rumors) spread, nor how rapidly the political and protection landscape changed. ow.ly/q40B30n0FHI

“With innovation, you have to start somewhere. What is important to me is the outcome of the project and the confidence that this young refugee developed through the whole process. I am results-oriented and you never know until you try.” ow.ly/BekW30mLlTs

What makes a successful innovation team? 1. Negative capability: being comfortable with uncertainty 2. Chaos pilots: leading and executing in unfamiliar territory 3. Divergent thinking, convergent action, and influential communication ow.ly/xDjg30mLpx8
