About this listen
Fading Causes - Kilian most recently became known as the “Mayor of Zatari” where he managed the refugee camp of Za’atari in Northern Jordan on behalf of UNHCR from 2013 to 2014. Za’atari has become a symbol for new and innovative refugee and humanitarian management approaches under his leadership. As the founder and President of the Startup “Innovation and Planning Agency” (IPA) Kilian Kleinschmidt now aims at connecting the millions of poor and dispossessed with the idle and under-utilised resources and modern technologies of the 21st century. He is part of a number of arts projects and various initiatives which aim at global connectivity through better use of globalisation. He is challenging the Humanitarian Aid Sector through a range of new and unorthodox partnerships, technologies, and financing. His work on emerging cities and urbanisation is widely recognised. Team building and leadership in crisis situations are a focus of his work.
