Humanitarian medicine 2
Mission:
To provide healthcare to under served people and to promote humanitarian values through education.
WONM Values
We are called to serve the neediest of the most disadvantaged people of the earth and seek to relieve their suffering and to assist in making sustainable improvements in their lives.
We seek to engage them, to promote their voice, and to offer our hands and feet in service.
We respect those in need as active participants, not passive recipients, in this relationship.
We regard all individuals as created and loved by God.
We believe that healthcare should not focus on for profit care but geared towards self-care, prevention of disease and sustainable development of rural communities.
We are not owners of the resources made available to us on behalf of the forgotten of this world.
We are partners with those we serve as well as with those who invest into our shared mission.
Our relationships are purposeful, diverse, and encourage mutual participation in achieving WONM's mission.
WONM seeks cooperation and partnerships with other organizations and groups that share our vision.

Digital Humanitarianism
This document promotes the Tech Girls Movement and encourages girls to see themselves as digital humanitarians and tech superheroes. It provides information about digital humanitarianism and crisis mapping projects. It also announces a competition for school girls to pitch technology solutions to social problems. Overall, the document celebrates girls in STEM and calls on them to unlock their superpowers in technology fields to make positive social change.
Hope in hell
This document provides background information on Doctors Without Borders (Medecins Sans Frontieres) and summarizes the book "Hope in Hell" by Dan Bortolotti. It outlines MSF's history of providing independent medical aid around the world since 1971. While MSF aims to treat patients impartially according to medical ethics, some critics argue they cannot remain completely neutral and are sometimes used as political tools. The book examines individual volunteers' experiences and serves as a reminder that humanitarianism is a compassionate response to human suffering.

More Than a Profile: The Ethics of Digital Storytelling in Study Abroad
Students post, tweet, and blog about their experiences overseas, and these narratives contribute to the growing popularity of study abroad. We must reinvent our pedagogy to adapt to this changing world and examine the stories that inspire student travel. How might they collide with the expectation of health equity and sustainable service? How can we promote self-reflection and cultural humility? An interdisciplinary panel – representing film studies, anthropology, and public health – will place the current debate in the context of postcolonial narratives, describe the potential for self-reflection, and offer a sample technique for using digital storytelling in trip preparation and in-class learning.
Parallels of Humanitarianism
This document discusses the parallels between humanitarianism and naturopathic medicine. It notes that students of naturopathic medicine, called Boucherians, find ways to serve locally through initiatives like a community herb garden and globally through medical brigades to countries like Nicaragua and Haiti. It also emphasizes that optimal service requires optimal personal wellness and discusses how chronic stress can negatively impact physical and mental health. The document promotes self-care and restoration through practices like meditation, yoga, massage and nutrition to balance the effects of stress and maintain well-being. It frames naturopathic treatment as focusing on individualized and holistic care through lifestyle and prevention strategies.
The Digital Humanitarian Moment: New Practices, Knowledge Politics, and Phila...
Digital humanitarianism alters how data is collected and represented in humanitarian responses. It emerges at the intersection of new mapping technologies, practices, and philanthropy-capitalism. Specifically:
1. Social media allows needs to be crowdsourced, but these needs must be "tamed" and filtered for operational use.
2. Needs are represented to construct "needy subjects" through place-based and temporal framings to justify interventions.
3. It enables further private sector involvement through philanthropy-capitalism, which depoliticizes humanitarianism and naturalizes tradeoffs.
Digital humanitarianism is shaping the humanitarian sector and broader political and economic relationships through knowledge politics around data collection and

Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
What to expect
For the upcoming meetup we are organizing, we have an exciting lineup of activities planned:
-Insightful presentations covering two practical applications of the Power Grid Model.
-An update on the latest advancements in Power Grid -Model technology during the first and second quarters of 2024.
-An interactive brainstorming session to discuss and propose new feature requests.
-An opportunity to connect with fellow Power Grid Model enthusiasts and users.
