SUMMARY:Future Session: Accelerating the Digital Transformation within the Dutch Development Sector
DESCRIPTION:In 2020\, The Spindle and the Hague Humanity Hub collaborate in organising a series of (almost) monthly inspirational working sessions for our mutual communities! In these sessions\, we’ll explore the relevance of (technological) trends for the future of development cooperation. The sessions are high in energy and always involve an expert. See what’s going on and get more grip on the implications and ideas that would work! \nInformation and communication technologies (ICT) offer opportunities and solutions for sustainable development around the world. In particular\, digital innovations\, methods and approaches can help us to achieve the goals of the 2030 Agenda more quickly\, more efficiently and more cost-effectively. They can also be significant drivers of sustainable development\, opening doors to knowledge\, education and the labour market\, improving and simplifying communication and creating opportunities for new business ideas. When they are used in health care or education\, for example\, digital innovations can help improve living conditions\, especially those of disadvantaged social groups. Also\, these innovations have the potential to assist with realising climate goals. \nAnno 2020\, the world is moving towards a new era in which digital innovations need to be integrated within broader (digital) existing ecosystems to create actual impact and stay sustainable. However\, too often the development sector is developing (expensive) stand-alone digital solutions that do not reach their full potential because existing (digital) ecosystems were not taking into account during the development phase. \nLet’s go on a The Digital Journey\nThis year\, The Spindle – as the innovation platform of Partos – will facilitate a so-called Digital Journey for the connected and intrapreneurial innovators of Dutch development organisations\, the so-called Linking Pins. Together they’ll explore digital commonalities such as tools and ways of working that various development organisations already work with or wish to start working with. After\, the LinkingPins will form Joint Action Groups that work together during facilitated events and build an actual product. \nAs an inspiration\, Alexander Medik from Aidsfonds Soa Aids Nederland will share examples of how their Stepped Care Model is providing a system through which various digital health solutions (websites\, chatbots\, educational games\, etc.) can reach their full potential by being integrated within a broader (digital) ecosystem. Examples will be provided from the Netherlands\, Kenya and South-Africa. \nRegistration for this event is mandatory! \n[av_button label=’Learn More’ link=’manually\,https://thespindle.org/event/future-session-9-consumer-centred-digital-health-care/’ link_target=” size=’large’ position=’center’ label_display=” icon_select=’no’ icon=’ue800′ font=’entypo-fontello’ color=’#fec20e’ custom_bg=’#444444′ custom_font=’#ffffff’ av_uid=” custom_class=” admin_preview_bg=”]

SUMMARY:Community Programming Board
DESCRIPTION:In 2020 we are experimenting with a Community Programming Board to help ensure the development of (joint) activities and programming that are of value for Hub members and the broader ecosystem. If you want to join\, get in touch with Alex! Here are some of the current open projects: \n> Workgroup “Peace & Justice Cafe”\nImagine a monthly event at the Hub bringing together the diverse Hague ecosystem\, allowing interested parties to plug in their content to this platform\, followed by networking/drinks. Are you interested in shaping this? Join the first workgroup meeting this Wednesday at 11:00 in the Hub Cafe (12 Feb). \n> Community of practice: fundraising and partnerships\nThe idea is to connect individuals responsible/interested in topics like fundraising and partnerships. The mission would be to share\, actively cooperate and collaborate on various funding opportunities with the members of the Hub. Interested? Reach out to Petra Novakova (International Alert) via Slack or let the team know. \n> Community of practice for SDG 16+\nTogether with HiiL\, the Humanity Hub is launching a community of practice for Sustainable Development Goal 16! It will be a loose alliance of actors in this sector\, and beyond\, that connects\, exchanges and works together in furtherance of achieving SDG16. The kick-off will be on Friday 6 March at 3pm. Let Katie (HiiL) or Alex (Hub) know if you are interested!

SUMMARY:Focal Point Café: The City of the Hague
DESCRIPTION:The City of The Hague will be kicking off our first Focal Point Café on Thursday the 27th of February!\nThe overarching theme for the very first Focal Point Café 2020 will be Collaborative Innovation. We will be joined by The Hague Tech Alliance and the Asser Institute\, who will be sharing their innovation stories. This will be followed up by an energetic and interactive session on collaborative learning facilitated by Butterfly works. \nSpeakers:\nThe Hague Tech Alliance – Paul Verhagen\nPersonal Background: \nPaul is a Data Scientist at The Hague Centre for Strategic Studies (HCSS) which is a member of the The Hague Tech Alliance. His work focuses predominantly on security\, geopolitics and data. Prior to joining HCSS\, Paul interned at the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs where he worked on global cyber capacity. \nProject Summary: \nThe Agrifood Dashboard measures Dutch interests in agri-food through trade\, development aid\, and infrastructure. The project Paul will present offers a one-stop-shop for all information available on agrifood and allows policymakers to quickly and thoroughly ask concrete and specific questions based on data driven insights. \nAsser Institute – Rebecca Mignot-Mahdavi\nPersonal Background: \nRebecca is a researcher in International Law and Counter-terrorism at the T.M.C. Asser Institute in The Hague in the ‘Human Dignity and Human Security in International and European Law’ strand. Her work reflects on counterterrorism and\, more precisely\, on our evolving legal and policy capacity to deal with security threats\, where new forms of non-state transnational risk\, counter-risk strategy and technology are in play. \nProject Summary: \nThe digital revolution has led us to build virtual identities. Simultaneously\, modern states have acquired unprecedented capacities to collect data about everyone in a timely and almost invisible manner. How can our data be used to counter-terrorism in a legal\, democratic and trustworthy way? Citizens are consulted and informed. The project Rebecca will present aims at building a bridge between the state and its citizens in regulating the use of big data in security practices. This bridge will take the form of a mobile App aimed at directly consulting (and informing) citizens of four European countries to start with on the role they would be willing to play in supporting (or not) their government to face current security threats (eg. by sharing their data). \n[av_button label=’Learn more’ link=’manually\,https://www.eventbrite.nl/e/92682169865′ link_target=” size=’large’ position=’center’ label_display=” icon_select=’no’ icon=’ue800′ font=’entypo-fontello’ color=’theme-color’ custom_bg=’#444444′ custom_font=’#ffffff’ av_uid=” custom_class=” admin_preview_bg=”] \nDCHI will be hosting regular Focal Point Café meetings in 2020. Here we will highlight humanitarian innovation cases and relevant themes\, as well as exploring best practices and lessons learnt from various organisations. This will be done in a casual ‘café-like’ setting to encourage our coalition to network and collaborate.\nEach meeting will be lead by one of our focal points\, from our 6 board member organisations: Ministry of Foreign Affairs\, Ministry of Defence\, The Netherlands Red Cross\, CARE Netherlands\, UNICEF and The City of The Hague.
