\u201cI had to give my fingerprints just to get food for my kids.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s what one refugee told us during our study on digital platforms used in humanitarian crises.

These platforms are meant to help. But in practice, they often force people to choose between survival and privacy, between speed and dignity.

In our new ICIS \u2013 The International Conference on Information Systems<\/a> short paper, we tried to understand how these ethical dilemmas play out in real life and then tested prototype designs that make tech more fair, more human, and more trustworthy \u2013 even under crisis conditions.

Here\u2019s what we learned:
\u2013 Privacy isn\u2019t a luxury. It\u2019s often the first thing people lose.
\u2013 Algorithmic decisions without explanations erode trust.
\u2013 Community support is still more reliable than most apps.

As a result, we formulate 4 design principles for tech used in refugee response.

Whether you work in tech, government, social impact, or policy, this research offers actionable insights for building platforms that serve most vulnerable.
