In the brief we also explore the impact on the number of people reached and the specific context that will be most impacted. We find that in a scenario where all US funding is cut, only 23% of people with humanitarian needs will be reached

3.9m additional people may be displaced this year due to donor funding cuts. Thats the results of our scenario-based displacement forecast using our Foresight machine learning model. The increased displacement results from the cuts to peacebuilding and humanitarian efforts

We are launching our Global Displacement Forecast today. Very worrying findings coming out, which will only be exacerbated by the decisions of major donors to cut funding #aid

SpaceX received $4 million by the US government in FY2008 but 0% of it made it to space. That is roughly the logic he applies when falsely claiming that only 10% of #USAID funding goes to those in need

Bizar tradition udløste den første alarm: Dansk AI-system spår uhyre præcist om konflikter En dansk udviklet kunstig intelligens går verden rundt og gavner millioner af fordrevne. Store FN-organisationer og internationale ngo’er som Røde Kors er med. Men UNHCR melder pas.

Tænk hvis vi kan forhindre at flygtningekriser opstår. Har talt med @politiken.dk om vores avancerede datamodel som hjalp til at forhindre eskalering af konflikt i Sydsudan som vi nu har fået 140 millioner til at udvide til flere lande. #dkaid #ai politiken.dk/viden/tech/a...

Genstart | Alt andet end Assad | DR LYD Der var ikke rigtig nogen, der havde set det komme. Nærmest som ud af det blå og stort set uden modstand indtager oprørere millionbyen Aleppo i Syrien. I spidsen står en selverklæret reformeret jihadi...

Tak til @haifaaa.bsky.social for at fortælle i Genstart om sårene fra og det spinkle håb nu i #Syrien. En brav påmindelse om ikke at kaste sig i armene på HTS bare fordi de ikke er Assad. Sørg lige for at hun har en fuldfed følgerskare her, når hun vender tilbage fra barsel www.dr.dk/lyd/special-...

“in October 2024, 130 women in Al Gezira State, central Sudan, reportedly committed mass suicide to avoid being raped by the RSF. Since then, news of women committing suicide by drowning themselves in the Nile have flooded social media.”

“Hopeless, Starving, and Besieged” The 154-page report, “‘Hopeless, Starving, and Besieged’: Israel’s Forced Displacement of Palestinians in Gaza,” examines how Israeli authorities’ conduct has led to the displacement of over 90 percen...

Why don’t the civilians just flee when Israel asks them to evacuate, I often hear. Because “Israel has not evacuated Palestinian civilians in Gaza for their security, as they have not been secure during evacuations or on arrival at designated safe zones” www.hrw.org/report/2024/...
