Natalia Baal
\nJIPS Deputy Coordination
\nDuty Station: Geneva, Switzerland<\/h3>\n

\u201cInnovation means a few things to me: Finding solutions to recurring problems;\u00a0nurturing\/supporting new ideas in case they turn out to be good ones; remaining open-minded\u00a0and not doing things because ‘this is how it’s always done’; and thinking holistically to search\u00a0for solutions.\u201d<\/p>\n

Natalia works as the Deputy for the Joint IDP Profiling Service, an inter-agency service\u00a0based in Geneva. She is interested in bridging the gap between the humanitarian and\u00a0development spheres. Additionally, she enjoys challenging environments where she is\u00a0able to work in groups – pinpointing great ideas and developing new projects.<\/p>\n

Project: Creating a Common Language in Transitional Situations<\/h3>\n

In protracted situations of displacement, there is an amorphous space in which families and\u00a0communities need both humanitarian assistance and development support. In such contexts,\u00a0coordination and collaboration between humanitarian and development actors and\u00a0approaches become necessary. However, many obstacles exist and challenge the potential\u00a0impact on the populations of concern.\u00a0This project will seek to create the first steps in a process towards a common language\u00a0between humanitarian and development actors working in transitional situations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
