Abstract

In the rapidly evolving landscape of humanitarian aid, technological advancements have created new possibilities to improve the efficiency, effectiveness, and sustainability of humanitarian operations. However, the humanitarian sector is associated with slow technology adoption rates and poor information and communication technology infrastructure. This necessitates exploring how technology can be contextually embedded and how the sector's peculiarities can be addressed to achieve “technological advancements in humanitarian aid.” This is the purpose of this special issue.
