Learn about DEPP Labs

The DEPP Innovation Labs supports local-level innovation to strengthen disaster preparedness. The programme aims to build solutions with communities at risk of crises to reduce the risk they face and to protect lives.

The Labs are based in Bangladesh, Jordan, Kenya, Philippines. The programme was launched in 2017 and will end in 2019. 

Our presentation below describes how user designed approaches are empowering people and driving innovation to benefit their local communities. During 2019 we aim to design a process that will enable innovators to scale these innovations up.
