Omdena recruited a team of more than 50 data scientists around the globe who worked tirelessly over the entire project duration. I´ve rarely seen a team working so hard for a common goal and achieving such tangible results in a short period of time. The project resulted in several outcomes that are extremely promising, not just for Save the Children, but for the entire field of NGOs and other actors in the field.
More than 30 partner organizations worked with us
What is an AI-enabled NGO?
An organization that recognizes the value of data and uses artificial intelligence to deliver some of their services and programs highly efficiently and at a large scale.
The path to becoming AI-enabled
1. Discover
Find out what problems you would like to solve using AI.
Additionally, an organization will need to find out which data sources are available.
2. Agile prototyping
A short, initial project is required to develop a proof of concept, which is then followed by a prototype.
This demonstrates the value of an AI-solution both internally and externally.
3. Productionize
The proof of concept is brought into production for the use by stakeholders to generate value.
4. Capacity building
The NGO starts a larger project to build up internal capacities like technical skills and to foster stakeholder collaboration, communication and problem-solving.

HOW IT WORKS
Choose & benefit from our modular building blocks
Consulting
1. Discover- Consultants from the Omdena community help NGOs to get started by defining reasonable goals, finding and refining datasets within and external to the organization.
Innovation Challenge
2. Agile prototyping- A diverse team of up to 50 AI engineers builds a proof of concept and delivers a prototype.
- Excellent to explore new AI applications, overcome challenges quickly, and gain new insights from internal and external data sources.
- Can be used to unlock additional funding from donors & sponsors
Dedicated Team
3. Productionize- 2-5 pre-vetted engineers build a production-level solution.
- Often, the continuation of the 8-week Challenge
Hiring
4. Capacity building- Hire top-performers from our real-world talent pool (acceptance rate < 9%) directly in-house.
World Resources Institute´s journey with Omdena
(10 months, 5 prototypes, 3 products, funding secured, +150 collaborators involved)
Up till now, we have worked with more than 150 AI engineers to do innovation sprints and develop prototypes in a matter of months. Already, our first Omdena AI project secured funding from our donors. I am a big fan and we are on our fifth project.
Rapid prototyping & secured funding
WRI hosted an Omdena Eight-Week Innovation Challenge where 50 collaborators built a prototype to identify land use conflicts and automatically match mediating government policies. The prototype was well-received and secured funding for follow-up projects.
Productionizing and starting additional Innovation Challenges
WRI has been hosting multiple Challenges to build proof of concepts in various domains such as climate change, land conflicts, policy-making, and more. In addition, WRI is leveraging Omdena Talent to develop several production-level solutions.
Prototype: Policy Matching Tool
Upskilling WRI´s internal teams
Omdena teams and WRI´s teams are working closely together where we provide constant access to our knowledge base and tool partnerships. This gives WRI´s staff not only a deep-dive into AI applications but also valuable skills to manage and execute real-world projects successfully.
