Mercy Corps is adopting generative AI to improve data accessibility for aid workers facing agricultural crises in the developing world. By implementing an AI tool, the organization seeks to provide quick, reliable responses based on past projects and research. Alicia Morrison emphasizes that making valuable information available empowers staff to generate innovative ideas for addressing humanitarian issues. Forming partnerships through programs like Tech To the Rescue's AI for Changemakers, Mercy Corps strives to enhance its effectiveness in solving critical challenges in over 40 countries.
In the developing world, agricultural crises like droughts, crop failures, and loss of livestock can rapidly escalate into humanitarian crises.
Making that tool available to the people doing the work helps them learn from what's been done and imagine new possibilities.
