Actionable Impact with Amy Dunham: Scaling Global Advocacy with AI

How does a legacy organization operating in over 60 countries use AI to scale their global movement?

Amy Dunham, Chief Communications Officer at Habitat for Humanity International, joins Andrew Bleeker to discuss her team’s strategic integration of AI. Amy explores how HFHI is leveraging its 50th anniversary to shift the focus from its history to the urgent global housing crisis. She shares how her team uses AI as a strategic “thought partner” to bridge the gap between idea and action — scaling their mission across diverse markets while maintaining the human authenticity that is the hallmark of the HFHI brand.

In this episode, they discuss:

Scaling Global Data: Using plain-text AI queries to transform brand tracking into actionable insights across 50 states and dozens of countries.

Authenticity vs. “AI Slop”: Why human stories and homeowner consent remain the non-negotiable core of Habitat’s global communications strategy.

The Business of Comms: Amy’s advice for the next generation of communicators on prioritizing ROI and business value to drive real-world impact.
