AIDF Guide to Inspiring Solutions That Save Lives & Support Development

Humanitarian stakeholders face a number of interconnected current or emerging challenges, including climate change, ever-growing refugee crisis, as well as water scarcity and food insecurity. Science and technological innovations play a critical role in contributing to effective aid delivery and enabling efficient disaster response and development programmes.

As part of the annual update of the guide to "Solutions That Save Lives & Support Development", the Aid and International Development Forum (AIDF), together with the Technology Exchange Lab, have researched latest technologies and innovations, which can help humanitarian actors to mitigate the future implications of these challenges.

With over 300 solutions nominated by NGOs, local governments, UN agencies and the private sector working in 58 different countries, the guide offers an updated list of cutting-edge technologies and products which support Sustainable Development Goals, aid delivery and disaster relief efforts across the globe.

AIDF would like to thank everyone for their participation in our recent survey and congratulate organisations which made it in the 2016 edition of the guide. The solutions span from earth-imaging satellites and 3D printing to sustainable innovations in basic sanitation, shelter and nutrition.

AIDF hopes this guide will inspire new solutions to improve humanitarian aid delivery and shape brighter future outcomes. To read the 2016 edition of "Solutions That Save Lives & Support Development", please click here www.aidforum.org/disaster-relief/inspiri...lopment-2016-edition
