This week, D2’s Co-Directors Mark and Emily are attending the Fifth Annual United Nations’ Web4Dev Conference, hosted by UNICEF. Web4Dev has re-united them with many of the other participants they met while presenting at the MobileActive 08 Conference in Johannesburg back in October including InSTEDD and Ushahidi. Thursday explored many themes including monitoring and evaluation, which included a presentation by InSTEDD’s Robert Kirkpatrick exploring their projects which include, GeoChat, Mesh4X, and a new project, Evolve.
