Developing country
Humanitarian aidAid and action designed to save lives, alleviate suffering and maintain and protect human dignity during and in the aftermath of emergenciesDiffers from development aid, because of:
•Humanity, neutrality, impartiality and independence•Short-term in nature, immediate aftermath of a disaster
>> In practice it is often difficult to say where ‘during and in the immediate aftermath of emergencies’ ends and other types of assistance begin

Empowerment
A person or organisation is empowered when these three elements are available:
– Information: knowledge, data– Skills: know how to…– Drive: ambition, urgency, entrepreneurial, passion
(and the power relations make it possible)
Examples• Autonomous and self-managing learning• Open Data______________________Own responsibility

Mental Resilience
• Work has been done on how to train mental resilience for the military, but not
(much) yet for humanitarian aid workers
• However similar problems…, similar preparation possible?

The problem (2) Military confirms Afghanistan's "invisible" tragedy (16-11-11)A just released Canadian Forces report says almost one in three Kandahar vets has sought some degree of mental health treatment. The most mentally-damaged are about 8% with difficult to treat "Afghanistan-related PTSD." Another 5% have what
the army calls Operational Stress Injury (OSI).
Veel militairen Uruzgan kampen met mentale problemen (15-10-11)Zeker zestienhonderd Nederlandse militairen die op missie zijn geweest naar het Afghaanse Uruzgan, zeggen na terugkomst te kampen met mentale problemen.Ze hebben last van flashbacks van gevechtsacties, woedeaanvallen en depressies en veel militairen zijn kort na de missie overmatig gaan drinken. Twintig procent van de militairen slaat de hulp die ze van defensie krijgen aangeboden af.
Humanitarian Relief Workers and Trauma-related Mental IllnessRelief workers, compared with the general population, experience elevated trauma rates and suffer from more posttraumatic stress disorder, depression, and anxiety. Organizations that employ relief workers have varying approaches to train for these risks, and more support in the field is needed. .
Mission impossible? The impact of humanitarian aid context and individual features on aid worker retentionFindings are for example: only 40% of MSF aid workers goes on a second mission.

The problem:
Amount of incidents with field workers has increased. NGOs leave
countries that are marked as unsafe, whereas the specific area they
are active in might be safe enough. Developmental work is stopped
and the local community left behind

“My name is Dembe, and I am from Uganda. I like to go to school, but I find maths very difficult. Often, I have to think so long that I get distracted and start to talk to my friends. My teacher then gets angry with me as she always hears me, even though we have 50 students in our class. I wish there was a more fun way to learn maths”.

“My name is Mary, and I am a school teacher. Although I love my work, I have such a lack of resources and so many pupiles -over 50! - that I cannot give them the attention they need. I get really frustrated that I know that some of them will not have the knowledge they need when they finish school. My husband always comforts me by saying that there is only so much I can do. But still, I wish I could do more”.

Open development
“An emerging set of possibilities to catalyze positive change through
open information-networked activities in international development”
Possibilities are for ngo’s to increase:
their transparency and accountability (e.g. open data)
their efficiency (e.g. data management, data sharing)
participation of stakeholders (e.g. social games)
collaboration with stakeholders (e.g. crowdsourcing)
Open data is first step towards open development

ICT related innovations for humanitarian assistance: conclusions and wrap-up
A mighty interesting, challenging and rewarding area to work in!
ICT on its own is no silver bullet, all other dimensions of the ecosystem
have to be taken into account as well
Very important to co-create with all (crucial) stakeholders, especially the
beneficiaries. It is all about empowerment.
Often reverse innovation or cross-fertilization possible from South to
North
Green field situation, e.g. M-Pesa
