@thinkper Swedish Minister of IA and #Humanitarianism asks which area of #digitaldevelopment can be ‘derisked’ with development aid to fast track greater digital inclusion @RIAnetwork @Sida #SIF21

[Revi Sterling @ReviSterling]

We had a great time attending sessions at #GDDF2021! Which were your favorites? Let us know!

We loved the “Is Technology Failing #Women?” session – so insightful! It was great to hear how @USAID @DAIGlobal @Solidaridadnetw & @KICTANet are addressing the digital gender gap.

[Revi Sterling @ReviSterling]

If the community doesn't understand, want, and endorse your development solution, don't do it. Period. Why is this so hard for "development experts" to get?? #GDDF2021

For the techies: instead of thinking about efficiency, think about efficacy and impact. There will be tradeoffs, and that’s ok when we are striving for impact. #GDDF2021
