However, I had seen in my previous jobs that it was possible to do it faster and in a more efficient way with programming languages such as Python. With one Python script you can collect your data through APIs, process it and visualize it, and all of that with just one click! It facilitates automatization, allowing everyone to focus on the actual analysis part and enable faster decision-making.</span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:257}\">&nbsp;</span>&#8220;}]},{&#8220;component&#8221;:&#8221;hc_space&#8221;,&#8221;id&#8221;:&#8221;3UgtK&#8221;,&#8221;css_classes&#8221;:&#8221;&#8221;,&#8221;custom_css_classes&#8221;:&#8221;&#8221;,&#8221;custom_css_styles&#8221;:&#8221;&#8221;,&#8221;size&#8221;:&#8221;s&#8221;,&#8221;height&#8221;:&#8221;&#8221;},{&#8220;component&#8221;:&#8221;hc_quote&#8221;,&#8221;id&#8221;:&#8221;fbDxp&#8221;,&#8221;css_classes&#8221;:&#8221;&#8221;,&#8221;custom_css_classes&#8221;:&#8221;&#8221;,&#8221;custom_css_styles&#8221;:&#8221;&#8221;,&#8221;text&#8221;:&#8221;“I feel like technology is the future of everything and the humanitarian sector is no exception.” &#8220;,&#8221;style&#8221;:&#8221;&#8221;,&#8221;author&#8221;:&#8221;&#8221;},{&#8220;component&#8221;:&#8221;hc_space&#8221;,&#8221;id&#8221;:&#8221;hpXXe&#8221;,&#8221;css_classes&#8221;:&#8221;&#8221;,&#8221;custom_css_classes&#8221;:&#8221;&#8221;,&#8221;custom_css_styles&#8221;:&#8221;&#8221;,&#8221;size&#8221;:&#8221;s&#8221;,&#8221;height&#8221;:&#8221;&#8221;},{&#8220;component&#8221;:&#8221;hc_wp_editor&#8221;,&#8221;id&#8221;:&#8221;VYkE9&#8243;,&#8221;css_classes&#8221;:&#8221;&#8221;,&#8221;custom_css_classes&#8221;:&#8221;&#8221;,&#8221;custom_css_styles&#8221;:&#8221;&#8221;,&#8221;editor_content&#8221;:&#8221;<span data-contrast=\"none\">I often organize Python trainings with my colleagues.

It can be easy to forget that form some gender is still very much binary and does not have the same meaning as where you are from.

It&#8217;s challenging work, and there are many structural problems to address, but it&#8217;s also really rewarding to see the impact of our programs.

Most of the information is pre-embedded in the template to prevent errors or wrongly adding data or indicators. During virtual training, I demonstrate to international implementing partners how to enter the data using dropdown or pre-embedded data. If they wrongly enter data, it will be difficult to have a map or work on the map process.

part of iMMAP&#8217;s commitment to delivering information management services and capacity building to our partners in support the most vulnerable populations, our team in Colombia successfully hosted and delivered an <b><a href=\"https://immap.org/news/immap-event-innovation-and-use-of-new-technologies-in-humanitarian-crises/\">online event &#8211; ´Innovation and Use of New Technologies in Humanitarian Crises´</a></b> between July 7th and 10th, 2020 with over 1,000 participants attending from numerous countries. The event focused on presenting and analyzing visible examples of innovation and new technologies being used within the humanitarian aid sector, and how these tools and methods can be utilized in Colombia as part of the Venezuela crisis response.  \n\nThis event was built upon iMMAP’s experience in applying new technologies to provide accurate information in support of humanitarian activities, including remote sensing and satellite imagery, artificial intelligence (AI), the use of social media (Facebook), and mobile data collection. These methods have been regularly used by iMMAP, together with its partners, in the <b><a href=\"https://stories.thinkingmachin.es/mapping-new-informal-settlements/\">detection and analysis of informal settlements throughout Colombia</a></b>, <b><a href=\"https://immap.org/news/immap-report-tracking-venezuelan-refugee-migrant-and-returnee-populations-in-colombia-through-facebook/\">monitoring population trends</a></b>,  <b><a href=\"https://immap.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/iMMAP-MENA-Ready-Data-Cube-A4-3.pdf\">conducting market value chain assessments</a></b>, and <b><a href=\"https://immap.org/story/wfp-utilizes-immaps-afghanistan-spatial-data-center-to-help-plan-humanitarian-operations-and-deliver-assistance/\">understanding the environmental hazards of disaster-prone areas impacted by crises</a></b>. The flexibility and interconnectedness of these new technologies allow for <b><a href=\"https://immap.org/news/bolstering-the-covid-19-response-with-information-management-services/\">easy adaptation in the emergence of new crises such as COVID-19</a></b>.  \n\nDuring four days, iMMAP and its partners delivered insightful presentations that looked at how new technologies and innovations can be implemented in humanitarian clusters and sectors; Health, Food Security, Nutrition and WASH, Livelihoods and Cash-Transfer, as well as Multisector activities. The event included moderators and speakers from different types of organizations, including iMMAP partners, donor agencies, humanitarian agencies, international NGOs, and academia.\n\n\n<b>PRESENTATIONS BY DAY:</b>&#8220;},{&#8220;component&#8221;:&#8221;hc_space&#8221;,&#8221;id&#8221;:&#8221;yhS88&#8243;,&#8221;css_classes&#8221;:&#8221;&#8221;,&#8221;custom_css_classes&#8221;:&#8221;&#8221;,&#8221;custom_css_styles&#8221;:&#8221;&#8221;,&#8221;size&#8221;:&#8221;l&#8221;,&#8221;height&#8221;:&#8221;&#8221;},{&#8220;component&#8221;:&#8221;hc_tab&#8221;,&#8221;id&#8221;:&#8221;gBVZb&#8221;,&#8221;css_classes&#8221;:&#8221;&#8221;,&#8221;custom_css_classes&#8221;:&#8221;&#8221;,&#8221;custom_css_styles&#8221;:&#8221;&#8221;,&#8221;name_1&#8243;:&#8221;Day 1 &#8211; Health&#8221;,&#8221;icon_1&#8243;:&#8221;&#8221;,&#8221;icon_style_1&#8243;:&#8221;&#8221;,&#8221;icon_image_1&#8243;:&#8221;&#8221;,&#8221;content_1&#8243;:[{&#8220;component&#8221;:&#8221;hc_text_block&#8221;,&#8221;id&#8221;:&#8221;gptVj&#8221;,&#8221;css_classes&#8221;:&#8221;&#8221;,&#8221;custom_css_classes&#8221;:&#8221;&#8221;,&#8221;custom_css_styles&#8221;:&#8221;&#8221;,&#8221;content&#8221;:&#8221;</p>
