DCHI and KUNO joined forces for November’s Third Thursday Meetup about what Smart Use of Data can do for you?
In the humanitarian context difficult and time-consuming decisions therefore constantly need to be made. The Smart Use of Data can be supportive to humanitarian action.
How do you create the best composition of food basket taking into account weather, population needs, transport, storage and so forth?
Together with WFP Hein Fleuren created the Optimus tool.
How to know the best location for building medical clinics if you have no clue where you customers are? Harwin de Vries used data to figure out what the best places were.
Speakers:
= Hein Fleuren, Professor at Tilburg University
= Harwin de Vries, Postdoctoral Researcher at INSEAD Humanitarian Research
Both Hein and Harwin will share with us the opportunities that exist in using data science in the humanitarian context.
Join us in learning more about how to put data to use and how to ask the right questions so that you don’t have to go through all the data.
Attendance is free, but registration is required.
