The Programme Innovation Lab is a dynamic and collaborative unit established by GOAL to foster the innovation that emerges from its programmes and promote it within the organisation and the wider humanitarian and development community. The Lab is an open space that facilitates collaboration and partnership between innovation champions within GOAL and key external strategic partners in order to support innovations that can be scaled to overcome humanitarian crises.
