The Digital Humanitarian Network is a consortium allowing Volunteer and Technical Communities (V&TCs) to interface with humanitarian organizations that seek their services. The Digital Humanitarian Network’s (DHNetwork) website was launched on April 9, 2012, by co-founders Andrej Verity from OCHA and Patrick Meier from iRevolution. In late 2019, DHN noted the maturation of the ability of traditional relief organizations to use modern tools, and announced that they would no longer be activating crisis response teams.
