Humanitarian challenges disproportionately impact historically marginalized and underserved communities worldwide. According to the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), 274 million people will be at-risk in 2022. Humanitarian challenges disproportionately impact historically marginalized and underserved communities worldwide. According to the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), 274 million people will be at-risk in 2022. Despite growing perils to human wellbeing and environmental sustainability, there remains a notable paucity of computing and data science research to inform equitable policy decisions for improving the livelihood of vulnerable populations. The 3rd KDD Workshop on Data-driven Humanitarian Mapping envisions scientific and community-based solutions to investigate and address these overarching sustainability challenges.
