CLIP “Community Led Innovation Partnership” - is a partnership effort to deliver community-based innovation. CLIP aims to increase accessibility, accountability, and inclusiveness for the most at-risk groups in the process of emergency response and preparedness through community-led innovation.

Through CLIP, YAKKUM Emergency Unit (YEU) organizes IDEAKSI (inclusive action innovation ideas) as a space to find and develop innovative solutions by community groups that enable communities, especially at-risk groups, to participate and be actively involved in the process of inclusive disaster management, climate change adaptation, and decision-making that impacts their lives.
