Enhancing Humanitarian Innovation
The RIL Jordan received funding from DEPP Labs, a START network initiative.  The Jordan RIL was supported to test the Matchmaker platform and provide both humanitarian and innovation technical expertise and tools to break down the barriers to supporting field innovators. 

As a result of the DEPP project, the Jordan Lab was able to:

  • Match 12 challenges with solutions and deliver solution packs during the project cycle:

    • 9 for institutional actors and NGOs

    • 3 for local communities

  • A total of 47 solutions were included in the solution packages

  • Make 39 referrals between humanitarian actors and solution-holders locally.

The referrals were developed as a pivot from the formal Matchmaker process that was part of the original DEPP project proposal and implemented in as an informal way of solving humanitarian challenges.
