The Digital Humanitarian Network is a network-of-networks, enabling a consortium of Volunteer and Technical Communities (V&TCs) to interface with humanitarian organizations that seek their services.〔(DHNetwork ) Main website for the consortium: (digitalhumanitarians.com )〕 As a community-based network, the DHN has a growing list of member-groups and organizations. == Mission == The Digital Humanitarian Network’s (DHNetwork) website was launched on April 9, 2012 by its co-founders: * Andrej Verity,〔("Verity Think" ) Blog from Andrej Verity.〕 OCHA * Patrick Meier,〔(Patrick Meier's Biography ) from Blog iRevolution.〕 (iRevolution ) The purpose is to support humanitarian organizations in their disaster response efforts around the world.〔("Digital Disaster Response to Typhoon Pablo" ) by Patrick Meier.〕 The network consists of member V&TCs (entities that manage networks of technically trained volunteers around the globe, who can be activated to backstop disaster response operations and produce information with limited turn over time). These groups have a wide range of skills from GIS mapping, crowdsourcing, and data analysis and collection, to volunteer management and process design. The DHNetwork puts groups that have existed for years under one umbrella and provides a single outlet for traditional responders to access the organizations.〔("Activation Successful: The Digital Humanitarian Network Simulation at ICCM" ) at TechChange.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Digital Humanitarian Network」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
