Our Vision: A humanitarian system that is capable of innovating and adapting to meet the needs of today and tomorrow.
Our Purpose: The Humanitarian Innovation Fund supports organisations and individuals to identify, nurture and share innovative and scalable solutions to the challenges facing effective humanitarian assistance.
The Humanitarian Innovation Fund (HIF) is a landmark grant-making fund to support organisations working in countries and regions facing humanitarian challenges, such as Haiti, Pakistan and East Africa, to develop, test and share new technologies, products and processes that will make humanitarian aid more effective and cost-efficient in the future.
The Fund was launched in 2010 and is the product of a partnership between ELRHA (Enhancing Learning and Research for Humanitarian Assistance) and ALNAP (The Active Learning Network for Accountability and Performance in Humanitarian Action); and is hosted by Save the Children UK.
The Fund represents a collective effort to enhance the contribution of innovation to improving operational humanitarian performance at the field level.It is currently made up of contributions from the UK Department of International Development, Canadian International Development Agency and the Swedish Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The fund is hosted by Save the Children UK, a registered charity in England and Wales (213890) and Scotland (SC039570).
