Just In Time: Empowering the Public to Save Lives
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 24 October 2024
Abstract
Each year, disasters impact over 50 million, and conflicts are indirectly related to 1,000,000 deaths. Traditionally, humanitarians help in two ways: Deployment: sending healthcare workers to provide direct care, and Development: training local healthcare workers. But these routes limit who can be reached and how quickly. We envision a scalable solution that moves beyond traditional humanitarian avenues to empower the public to save lives and reduce suffering through equitable, open-access education.
Provide the justification for just in time digital education.
Provide various examples of JIT education.
Summarize current JIT domestic and global initiatives.
