What is the goal?
To maximize equitable impacts when using Earth science for humanitarian decisions by providing high quality, unbiased, inclusive guidance on program design and strategic approaches.
WHY THIS MATTERS
Having access to diverse, unbiased expert guidance is a rare gift these days. We’re making it easier to access this guidance and connect with experts who cover the range of topics that matter when using satellite data for humanitarian action.
Who should get involved?
Funders and humanitarians who are seeking better returns from their program design or strategy can submit their projects for review by a Review Board.
Interdisciplinary experts who have experience using satellite data are invited to sign up to be part of the Board pool.
