---|---|---|
The needs of vulnerable populations have been addressed, traditionally, by an ecosystem of private and public agencies that rely on donations (goods, money and services) which they re-distribute based on their perception of what is needed and where. This approach lacks a comprehensive understanding of the demand side as well as the ability to coordinate between various suppliers of goods and services, predict future demand and identify latent supply. We present a knowledge-based platform that utilizes advances in several Artificial Intelligence fields for a more efficient and effective way of provisioning goods and services to people in need. |
