These methodologies can involve high-tech, low-tech, and even zero-tech solutions.

Over the course of the year, Innovation Fellows define a challenge unique to their field operation or divisions, and develop, test, and prototype a solution to address the challenge. They are trained in human\/user-centered design and prototyping principles and are connected to internal and external support for refining their solutions. The program also aims to facilitate longer term change management as it encourages Fellows to be innovative in their current and future roles within the organization.","breadcrumb":{"@id":"https:\/\/www.unhcr.org\/innovation\/innovation-fellowship\/#breadcrumb"},"inLanguage":"en-US","potentialAction":[{"@type":"ReadAction","target":["https:\/\/www.unhcr.org\/innovation\/innovation-fellowship\/"]}]},{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-US","@id":"https:\/\/www.unhcr.org\/innovation\/innovation-fellowship\/#primaryimage","url":"https:\/\/www.unhcr.org\/innovation\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/fellowship.jpg","contentUrl":"https:\/\/www.unhcr.org\/innovation\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/fellowship.jpg","width":2880,"height":1750},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","@id":"https:\/\/www.unhcr.org\/innovation\/innovation-fellowship\/#breadcrumb","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https:\/\/www.unhcr.org\/innovation\/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Innovation Fellowship"}]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https:\/\/www.unhcr.org\/innovation\/#website","url":"https:\/\/www.unhcr.org\/innovation\/","name":"UNHCR Innovation","description":"Innovation starts with people","publisher":{"@id":"https:\/\/www.unhcr.org\/innovation\/#organization"},"potentialAction":[{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https:\/\/www.unhcr.org\/innovation\/?s={search_term_string}"},"query-input":{"@type":"PropertyValueSpecification","valueRequired":true,"valueName":"search_term_string"}}],"inLanguage":"en-US"},{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https:\/\/www.unhcr.org\/innovation\/#organization","name":"UNHCR","url":"https:\/\/www.unhcr.org\/innovation\/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-US","@id":"https:\/\/www.unhcr.org\/innovation\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/","url":"https:\/\/www.unhcr.org\/innovation\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/CFR-UNHCR-logo.png","contentUrl":"https:\/\/www.unhcr.org\/innovation\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/CFR-UNHCR-logo.png","width":1466,"height":600,"caption":"UNHCR"},"image":{"@id":"https:\/\/www.unhcr.org\/innovation\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/"},"sameAs":["https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/UNHCRInnovation\/","https:\/\/x.com\/UNHCRInnovation","https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/unhcrinnovation"]}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.unhcr.org\/innovation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5022","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.unhcr.org\/innovation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.unhcr.org\/innovation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.unhcr.org\/innovation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.unhcr.org\/innovation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5022"}],"version-history":[{"count":174,"href":"https:\/\/www.unhcr.org\/innovation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5022\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":44955,"href":"https:\/\/www.unhcr.org\/innovation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5022\/revisions\/44955"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.unhcr.org\/innovation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/30749"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.unhcr.org\/innovation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5022"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
