Optimistic innovator obsessed with the future. Tweeting about things I believe in (I drew my background picture)

Over the next few months I will be writing a few pieces on my experience leading Innovation and Digital for one of the largest international NGOs. My first post is fresh of the oven.

On #InternationalWomensDay - and EVERY OTHER DAY - don't use words like 'empower' and 'celebrate'. Instead, use words like 'hire', 'promote', 'pay', 'raise', 'bonus', 'fund', 'invest in', 'enrich', 'give equity to', 'elect', 'lead' - and don't just say it, DO IT.

When you have to murder to achieve your utopian dream - whatever that might be -, you are only enacting a dystopian nightmare.

What is interesting here is: “a sister company to the nonprofit”. The for profit spin off not only present in the US but I also see ambitions of it globally. Looking forward to this future of solidly built enterprises, but dreading the commercial replication of NGO systems.

Love this article from @AmazonBusiness in @WSJ about @svdpusadisaster's new "survivor wallet" application. Can anyone guess what blockchain the app utilizes to make DID verification and aid disbursement instant & secure? 🤓 #Algorand @AlgoFoundation

Imagine if other crisis were externally managed as well as this one is… The amount of PR behind this type of humanitarian appeals should be studied in the context of futures of aid. Can you picture Ben receiving a beautifully written thread about Mali or Congo and posting it?

[Ben Stiller @BenStiller]

Watching Ukrainian President @ZelenskyyUa make a plea for help here in the US with @POTUS and speaking to congress, I’m struck by a lot of feelings. So a couple of posts here that might sound serious and without humor but this situation is…

The biggest compliment is when your ex-employer has to call an external consultant to do a full blown review to figure out how to replace the work you did across a myriad of areas.

Absolutely brilliant @BrookingsInst - the lack of capacity is in the donor plus the misalignment of local government interest.

Who knew? There’s still interesting content on Twitter!

Money migrant workers from developing countries send home is at least three times as much as foreign aid those countries receive (@WorldBank data).

A reminder about who plays which role when one speaks about development…

If you can’t handle the mess then why would anyone need to hear what you have to say.

Great people don’t flinch at the truth even if it is tragic

After months of work I can finally to share the video of the latest Humanitarian Reform - Grand Bargain - Leave no one behind - Resilience - Nexus - From Funding to Financing - Cash - Collective Outcomes Summit

Me and the other black sheep had a blast!

A flock of Sheep in Inner Mongolia have been walking in a circle for over 10 days straight and no one knows why.

… and call it a humanitarian cluster.

Thirteen children play a game in which the aim is to be as worried as possible.

In the climate conference, they will ask for your stories of how your village was wiped out by a cyclone and how the sea is swallowing the land. They will have a bit of a cry and thank you. And then they will do it again next year while the world continues to burn.

[ACAPS @ACAPSproject]

#Haiti A combination of sociopolitical unrest, fuel shortages, and declining economy has resulted in significant #humanitarian needs

4.7M people (half of the pop) in IPC Phase 3 or worse levels of acute food insecurity and +800 suspected cholera cases...

@ziadachkar Aré you trying to break The Tweeter ?

[eiemi @Emislianos]

Hace poco más de 4 años mi mamá me llamó y me dijo: Emi, veni porque creo que estoy teniendo un ACV. Yo estaba en la facultad esperando la nota de un parcial así que dejé todas mis cosas ahí y corrí las 15 cuadras hasta su casa mientras pedía una ambulancia (sigue)

@themrise Looking great and kicking ass professionally… I’d say that is a pretty solid way to celebrate your 50th! Congratulations
