In order to achieve this, the Humanitarian Innovation Fund will work towards:
- Enabling and supporting humanitarian innovators to move creative ideas through the innovation process;
- Supporting them in building new partnerships with key actors;
- Enabling the lessons from grant funded projects and from analysis of innovation processes in humanitarian contexts to be disseminated more widely
- Strengthening existing relationships between humanitarian agencies, academics and those in the private sector engaged in innovation processes.
