A decade ago, new technology promised to tip the scales in the fight against global poverty. An explosion of digital data - together with engineering advances, novel analytical approaches, & new options for mobile delivery of products, services, & information - heralded the arrival of an exciting new frontier in global development. But today, as the world faces overlapping crises, this optimism has been tempered by concerns about utility, equity, privacy, security, & misinformation, sparking a popular backlash against tech.
Evidence to Action (E2A) 2023: Realigning Tech for Social Impact will take an honest look at the role that new technologies - from hardware innovations to advancements in digital data & service delivery platforms - have played in improving outcomes for people experiencing poverty, noting key wins as well as inherent limitations & trade-offs. We will draw on rigorous evidence as well as the perspectives of public & private sector experts to deliver a nuanced take on the role of technology in designing, targeting, & measuring effective & inclusive responses to global poverty.
Stay tuned for more information about speakers & the full program.
