Bringing HOPE to whoever needs it most

06 Nov 2025

Description

In this episode of Bits&Bytes we hear from Gabriele Erba and Domenico Di Nicola to discover how UNICEF’s HOPE platform is transforming humanitarian aid through digital cash transfers, open-source technology, and AI-driven innovation. We dive into how HOPE helps deliver secure, scalable, and fast financial assistance to families with children in need—across more than 30 countries and over $850 million distributed. Learn how HOPE (Humanitarian cash Operations and Programme Ecosystem) integrates with financial service providers, uses face recognition to prevent fraud, and empowers governments and humanitarian organizations with modular, open-source software. We also explore the future of cash assistance, including AI-powered automation, risk mitigation, and user-centered design. Whether you're in humanitarian tech, digital finance, or child protection, this episode offers insights into how technology can drive impact at scale.
