En enero de 2020, el Departamento de Asuntos Políticos y de Consolidación de la Paz lanzó la Célula de Innovación, un equipo interdisciplinario dedicado a ayudar al Departamento y a sus oficinas sobre el terreno a comprender, explorar, probar y ampliar nuevas tecnologías, herramientas y prácticas en la prevención de conflictos, la mediación y la consolidación de la paz. En respuesta al llamado del Secretario General al sistema de las Naciones Unidas para acelerar la adopción de métodos innovadores, la Célula de Innovación impulsa la innovación en el ámbito de la paz y la seguridad, al tiempo que ofrece un espacio para que colegas en la Sede de la ONU y en el terreno colaboren en el diseño centrado en las personas y la resolución de problemas.
La Célula forma parte de la Red de Innovación de la ONU (UNIN) y trabaja para dinamizar un ecosistema de actores tecnológicos, de la sociedad civil y del ámbito académico fuera del sistema de las Naciones Unidas, en torno a casos de uso relacionados con la paz y la seguridad, aprovechando así la innovación con miras a un objetivo común: la paz.
