The GSMA Mobile for Humanitarian Innovation (M4H) programme’s mission is to accelerate the delivery and impact of digital humanitarian assistance. The programme aims to catalyse partnerships that deliver innovative, mobile-enabled solutions to improve how those affected by disaster and crisis engage with those providing assistance, whether humanitarian agencies, NGOs, governments or private organisations. Launched in September 2017 with support from the UK Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO), the inaugural round of the Innovation Fund aimed to support projects which would help strengthen the resilience of communities experiencing or at risk of crisis. Five innovative projects were selected and provided with funding and support. These projects were led by Nokia Saving Lives, REFUNITE, Lumkani, Mercy Corps and Flowminder.
