InSTEDD

Client

InSTEDD (Innovative Support to Emergencies, Diseases and Disasters) is a non-profit organization founded in 2006 by the renowned Dr. Larry Brilliant, and later funded by Google.org.

The organization contributes to improving quality of life for people all over the world, by identifying potential improvements in information flows and the efficacy of intersectoral collaboration. InSTEDD addresses life-threatening gaps in communication and knowledge sharing in the pursuit of improved health, livelihood and security. Their work enables a connection between those in need, and those who can provide much needed resources.

Partnership

Manas started collaborating with InSTEDD in 2007, and we have continued to deliver solutions together ever since. As their technology partner we have shipped over 60 projects with them, in more than 20 countries.

With InSTEDD bringing the international humanitarian and development sector know-how, and Manas.Tech contributing the design and software expertise, the partnership has seen both organizations building on mutual strengths.

InSTEDD’s iLab Latin America

The iLab Latin America, InSTEDD’s second iLab, was founded in 2011 in Buenos Aires, Argentina, as a joint effort by InSTEDD and Manas. The team helps NGOs, governments, social entrepreneurs, and other organizations in the region design and use collaboration technology tools to deliver critical services to vulnerable populations, while building and optimizing their technological capacities to support their humanitarian work.
