Across Central Africa and the Great Lakes region, government agencies and development partners sought to better understand shifting dynamics in humanitarian aid, resource management, and security. GIST was commissioned to design and operate multi-source platforms that provide continuous, data-informed context analysis to support strategy and programme adaptation.
Using field research, network mapping, and remote monitoring, GIST’s teams fuse open-source information, satellite imagery, and locally collected data to deliver real-time insights. These systems help clients identify emerging risks, track conflict dynamics, and adjust responses before they escalate.
This approach reflects GIST’s commitment to bridging technology and human expertise, delivering early and proactive foresight in fragile and fast-evolving situations.
