After a very competitive application process, Dataminr, one of the world’s leading AI companies, today announced the selection of DEEP as part of the 2024 AI for Good Partners program.

Now in its third year, Dataminr’s AI for Good program connects non-governmental organizations and United Nations agencies with Dataminr AI scientists to turn compelling ideas with social impact into innovative AI solutions. Dataminr will collaborate with DEEP and with Mnemonic, the other project selected for the program, on tailored AI projects that accelerate and optimize resources for more effective responses to humanitarian crises, and accountability for human rights violations.

DEEP will work with Dataminr to integrate user feedback into personalized tagging recommendations for DEEP’s free and open-source collaborative platform. The results will generate a more complete picture of the operational context, informing more effective and efficient response efforts. Over the next year, Dataminr AI researchers will work closely with the DEEP partners to define the scope of the project, conduct research into each use case, and develop cutting-edge AI tools that help program partners enhance and scale their impact to use limited resources more effectively.

“This year, we’re focused on force-multiplication through our AI for Good projects,” said Jessie End, vice president for Social Good at Dataminr. “We’ve selected two incredible initiatives with partners who have built digital tools that support not only their own work, but also the efforts of organizations across the human rights and humanitarian sectors. We couldn’t be more excited to see the positive social impact made from our 2024 AI for Good partnerships.”

“The need for rapid and effective humanitarian response has never been greater, especially as we navigate new global challenges like climate-driven displacement,” said Joel Myhre, DEEP coordinator. “Working with Dataminr, we have an incredible opportunity to use AI in a way that enhances DEEP to enable more effective responses and provide critical support.”
