And we never give up.
For every child, a champion
Innovation unit at UNICEF has been a driving force behind many
successful initiatives. Like in most innovations, the majority of those
remain as concepts or as pilots that are required to be learned to
minimize chance of repetition and of error. At the same time, there are a
few innovations that are successful and have been brought to scale.
These should be shared and learned with the intention of further
sustaining them and possibly even to take successful innovations to new
locations and adjust to other programmes. To facilitate this learning,
UNICEF launched in 2020 the INVENT platform. INVENT is UNICEF’s global
inventory for innovation and T4D projects, it helps focus investments on
innovation in line with the organization strategic priorities. INVENT
includes innovations of all types: physical product, programming,
frugal, innovative financing, data, and digital. INVENT enhances the
global visibility of innovative country and regional projects, with the
aim of identifying initiatives that have the potential for multi-country
and global scale. UNICEF Tanzania has already submitted its catalogue
of innovations to INVENT, but some require regular update and there are
new interventions that should be catalogued
