Sahana leading the “New Information Environment”New information and communication technologies, new information providers, and new international communities of interest emerged during the Haiti earthquake response that will forever change how humanitarian information is collected, shared, and managed. Humanitarian responders used social networking media, mobile phone text messaging, open source software applications, and commercial satellite imagery more than ever before. Outside of the established international humanitarian community, volunteers and participatory reporters from the affected population became new sources of data and information. Humanitarian organizations, host governments, and the donor community will all need to adapt to this new information environment.
US Department of State Humanitarian Information Unit, White Paper: Haiti Earthquake: Breaking New Ground in the Humanitarian Information Landscape, July 2010
New partners are offering faster, more effective means of analyzing an ever-increasing volume and velocity of data. The challenge ahead is how to create an effective interface between these resources, and create an eco-system where each actor understands its role. It will not be easy. Volunteer and technical communities (V&TCs) like OpenStreetMap, Sahana and CrisisMappers approach problems in ways that challenge the status quo.

TestimonialsFaced with disaster situations, like those lived by [Chile] in the last days, the need for information becomes imperative. With this Smart Center, we can significantly reduce response times for the persons that search, and optimize volunteer work.Lorenza Donoso, President of the Chilean Red Cross on the Sahana Eden-based Smart Center solution,
used in response to wildfires in early 2012
Sahana [Eden] is blowing my mind. I can’t think of any project we’ve done that we couldn’t build on this platform.

No innovation matters more than that which saves lives.Avelino J. Cruz, Jr., Secretary of National Defense of the Philippines on the use of Sahana following
