Congratulations to Richard Brion
The Tech Challenge competition was created in support of the White House's strategy for preventing mass atrocities. It encourages participants to identify and create technology-based tools to help prevent atrocities like genocide and ethnic cleansing. Winners were selected by a prestigious panel of judges, comprised of human rights and technology experts and U.S. government leaders.
The Alert sub-challenge asked innovators to develop simple, affordable technologies that can be used to gather or verify atrocity-related data from hard-to-access areas, which can then be used to inform the international community. Selected from the 166 submitted concepts, Richard's concept was one of the six winners in the category.
We are supporting Richard in finding corporate and/or philanthropic funders to fully develop the concept.
