PATRICK: Talk off concept note to HU 18-month program War is a public health problem Independent evaluators, incubate novel initiatives, technical consultants with Harvard expertise/credibility, convening power Shared Learning Group on Early Warning Multidisciplinary approach to identify solutions beyond our own field of interest Competitive advantages: Harvard faculty, extensive partnerships with NGOs, research network, multidisciplinary approach Goal: establish center of excellence to promote exchange and analysis via dedicated workshops, working papers, symposia, joint projects Focus on innovative thinking and technologies to maximize impact of conflict early warning, crisis mapping and humanitarian response Use of information and technology to empower at-risk communities to get out of harm’s way Take a deliberate cross-disciplinary approach to identify lessons learned and best practices across sectors 100 consultations with multiple partners in diverse sectors Relevant input from Google Predict and Prevent website: “This initiative will use information and technology to empower communities to predict and prevent emerging threats before they become local, regional, or global crises.” “This initiative supports two inter-related pathways from prediction to prevention. The first is vulnerability mapping and identification of "hot spots." The second, creating systems to better detect threats to provide early warning and enable a rapid response.” “Innovative, event-based surveillance at the community level in the developing world” “Understanding the complex drivers that lead to emerging threats can help communities anticipate surprises and reduce vulnerability.” “Improving data collection, sharing, and analysis for enhanced vulnerability mapping and modeling” “Contributing to enhanced resilience of communities to withstand threats and adapt to changes” “Timely, accurate, and accessible information can help prevent localized health crises from becoming regional or global threats. Google.org is focusing on: (1) Using innovative methods to quickly find threats wherever they occur; (2) Confirming outbreaks and identifying their cause; (3) Alerting key stakeholders, from villagers to global health authorities.”
