331 - ConnectChains unfiltered: Managing Stock cooperatively

In this English episode, we dive into a rarely discussed topic:
managing stock in humanitarian logistics. Together with guests from
Welthungerhilfe, we explore the real challenges NGOs face – from
lack of transparency to massive funding cuts. At the center is the
“Stockholm Platform,” an initiative aiming to create global
visibility of humanitarian stock. It quickly becomes clear that the
rules in humanitarian logistics differ fundamentally from those in
the private sector. At the same time, there are striking parallels,
especially when it comes to resilience and collaboration. -
Transparency over silos: Why the lack of visibility in stock
management is a core issue – and how the Stockholm Platform tackles
it. - Collaboration under pressure: How decreasing funding and
growing global crises are forcing NGOs to move from “collaboration
washing” to real cooperation. - Resilience vs. efficiency: What
businesses can learn from humanitarian logistics when dealing with
uncertainty and crisis preparedness. This episode highlights how
complex and relevant supply chain management becomes outside the
traditional business world. The lessons around collaboration,
simplicity, and focusing on what truly matters can be directly
applied to the private sector. If you want to understand how
logistics works under extreme conditions, this episode is a
must-listen. As always, you’ll find all relevant links and
resources in the show notes.
