The overriding DHG agenda is to provide humanitarian, industry and public stakeholders with a system-wide view that can only be achieved through harnessing the power of combined private and public sector data elements, to allow near real time visibility of the flow of relief and essential goods at a global and local level.

The Opportunity
The Digital revolution has made essential information available than the
slow and sometimes conflicting trickle of information available on ground
zero. This has made humanitarian response more targeted and suitable to
recipients. Digital humanitarianism has an added benefit to crisis response
in that it creates a sense of fellowship resulting in more interaction between
humanitarians and those they seek to assist.
