Today, decades into digitalization, we are seeing fundamental changes in the technology landscape. These changes are prompting international actors, including humanitarians, to seek new ways to operate globally. Open source has been identified as one possible solution.
The ICRC has always operated in challenging environments to respond to the needs of people affected by armed conflict or other violence. Today, as the ICRC grapples with how to operate effectively amidst that changing technology landscape, our technology strategy was reshaped to strengthen resilience against cybersecurity risks and to ensure critical information systems’ availability. The strategy outlines the technical foundation needed to respond in a responsible way. It is aligned with the exclusively humanitarian nature of the ICRC’s activities; the principles of humanity, neutrality, impartiality, and independence that support our mission; and the ICRC’s standard ways of working, which are critical to establishing and maintaining trust, access to affected people and the security of ICRC staff in the places we work.
Open source plays an important role in our technology strategy and in this talk we will share some reflections and initial learnings on how the open source journey has been starting at the ICRC, where we are, and where we are aiming. We are also seeking support and guidance from the open source community on questions and dilemmas that have arisen to date on our trip.
Finally, we are here to collaborate on the question, quo vadis open source?
By Mika Lauhde
Open source has become a cornerstone for innovation, collaboration, and trust in the digital era. By enabling transparency, interoperability, and inclusivity, open source technologies create opportunities for countries and communities of all sizes to participate in shaping digital ecosystems. This talk will highlight how open source principles—shared ownership, peer collaboration, and collective problem-solving—are critical to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and ensuring that digital transformation benefits everyone.
For several years now, the city of Échirolles has been engaged in an original and innovative digital transformation. A proactive and structured approach to serve the inhabitants, based on free software and open data.
Les pompes à chaleur sont dans tous les scénarios de transition énergétique. Mais concrètement : comment ça marche ? Pourquoi leur “rendement” peut dépasser 100 % ? Combien de CO₂ on évite vraiment en remplaçant une chaudière gaz ou fioul ? Les fluides frigorigènes posent un problème climatique ? Est-ce que le réseau électrique français suivra ?
Une vidéo fouillée et sourcée pour répondre à toutes ces questions et à d'autres !

3D-Visualisierung eines konkaven Kugelspiegels mit drei Konstruktionsstrahlen. Links befindet sich ein gitterartiger „Buckyball“, von dem drei farbige Strahlen ausgehen: der Parallelstrahl (blau) trifft die Kugel und wird an einer blauen Tangentialfläche – der lokalen Spiegelebene – reflektiert; der Brennpunktstrahl (grün) passiert den Brennpunkt und läuft nach der Reflexion parallel zur Achse; der Mittelpunktstrahl (rot) trifft den Spiegel senkrecht und reflektiert auf sich selbst zurück. Alle reflektierten Strahlen schneiden sich vor dem Spiegel und markieren den Bildpunkt des Buckyballs.

Wärmebildaufnahme eines Café-au-Lait-Moments: In kräftigen Gelb- und Orangetönen ist heißer Espresso zu sehen, der aus einer Kanne in eine Schale mit bereits warmer Milch gegossen wird. Der glühend helle Strahl des Espressos hebt sich deutlich vom violett-blauen, kühleren Hintergrund ab. Die Schale und die Kanne erscheinen ebenfalls in warmen Farbtönen, was ihre erhöhte Temperatur zeigt.
