About the Programmes
Mobile for Humanitarian Innovation Programme
There is wide-spread acceptance of the lifeline that mobile technology provides to populations affect by crisis and its ability to facilitate more dignified and self-reliant approaches to the provision of aid. GSMA envisions a digital humanitarian future, where mobile and digital solutions play an optimisation role in providing improved access to services, information and choice for people that could be or are already impacted by crisis. The Mobile for Humanitarian Innovation Programme will incorporate and expand the GSMA Disaster Response Programme, working with Mobile Network Operators, the humanitarian sector and other stakeholders to drive innovation and accelerate the impact of mobile technology before, during and after crisis.
Digital Identity Programme

Mobile technology is uniquely positioned to enable accessible and inclusive digital identity. The GSMA Digital Identity programme is playing a key role in advocating and raising awareness of the opportunity of mobile-enabled digital identity and life-enhancing services. Our programme works with mobile operators, governments and the development community to demonstrate the opportunities, address the barriers and highlight the value of mobile as an enabler of digital identification.
