Background

About Daniel Higgins

In my role at the Danish Refugee Council, I focus on pragmatic innovation process management, working with a systems lens, leveraging AI in the humanitarian sector, and conducting research into digital employment solutions for people of concern. My work in Market Systems involves balancing global perspectives with local actions, ensuring market dynamics are conducive to long-term economic stability and growth. In the field of AI and the humanitarian sector, I aim to utilize artificial intelligence to enhance the efficiency and ethics of our humanitarian efforts, always striving to push the boundaries of what's possible. As for innovation management, I'm dedicated to testing, integrating, and scaling innovative pilot projects across the 40+ countries DRC works in. In terms of digital employment, my goal is to categorize what it takes to harness opportunities for displaced individuals to fostering resilience and independence through digital platforms. I am passionate about driving positive change in the humanitarian sector by integrating innovative solutions. If you're interested in collaborative efforts to advance this field, I'd be glad to connect and explore possibilities together.
