Niamh is a technologist specialising in analytics and digital
transformation in large multi-nationals. She has volunteered expertise
to charities working in homelessness and addiction support and charities
working with older people, sex workers and asylum seekers and refugees.
The catalyst for these efforts was the picture of Aylan Urdis, the boy
on the beach which gave rise to RefugeeBnB, an Airbnb type platform for
refugees. This initiative was taken up by the Red Cross who are
actively placing refugees in private homes. This talk was given at a
TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized
by a local community.
