Initially NetHope was founded to help solve common Information Communications Technology (ICT) challenges of International Non-Government Organizations (INGOs) such as connecting field teams in remote regions with other field teams and headquarter locations … By working together NetHope has now evolved to become a catalyst for thought leadership, collaborative results, information sharing and innovative ICT solutions … Which address the “Humanitarian Productivity Gap” in the INGO sector -- the chronic under investment in technology limiting member’s ability to reach almost half of the world’s population that lives below the poverty line.
