Intelligent Community Response Systems (ICRS)
At Fidelitas, Intelligent Community Response Systems (ICRS) represent a convergence of Sociology, Technology and Artificial Intelligence (AI) to address real-life needs and challenges. We leverage on simple accessible social-tech tools, such as basic mobile phones, group-based televisual AI learning hubs, and open source digital applications to reduce the digital divide by transforming community members into immediate intelligent data users. This process concurrently fosters digital literacy by requiring consistent, practical engagement with the technology, thereby building essential skills among local community users. The ICRS supports localized learning, identify emerging patterns and needs, and instantly push back highly refined, evidence-based insights and specific action protocols directly to the field teams, thus empowering and implementing truly community-led interventions that are dynamic, precise, and immediately responsive to the data collected by the community itself.
