@DigitalImpactSq @vesatogo @SachinAShende Sandip Shinde of @DigitalImpactSq shared insights on #socialimpact through #ProductInnovation 
@DigitalImpactSq @vesatogo @SachinAShende Here are a few key thoughts that the #Audiences took away:
There are 18 young adults across the Nation who are training to be model citizens. For a month, they have worked with their local governments to uplift the civic standards of their neighborhoods.
They are the Youth vertical of the Solve Movement! Working endlessly with our mentors, this group of leaders is training to build the future of the country. Are you still reading this?
Why did Yield Guild Games, or #YGG capture everyone's attention? A thread: 1. During the pandemic, a lot of people were put out of work and not able to provide for themselves and for their families. This time kind of coincided with the rise of a game called “Axie Infinity”
one of the first games to pioneer a #playtoearn model, which is becoming a very important theme in #cryptogames 2. In order to play “Axie Infinity,” you need to have three Axies, and generally speaking, that means you need to buy them upfront. Obviously if you’re out of work...
, you have no money, so buying these digital pets can become a very challenging proposition. So YGG founder, #GabbyDizon in the Philippines, who played “Axie Infinity” started lending out his #Axies so other people could play the game and earn tokens that could then be converted
Conversations around #development and #socialimpact are obfuscated by project management jargon that focus on deliverables and timelines.
.@Deval_Sanghavi wanted to cut through this jargon to get to the real stories of success and failure in the #developmentsector. So why not a frequently used term or phrase that made people groan or eye roll?
A thread on #Nonprofits and the #SocialMedia platforms like #TikTok #instagram #Twitter #Facebook etc. 1/6
Getting attention from existing or prospective #nonprofit donors/volunteers on any mainstream Social Media platforms is identical. Sure, there are billions of daily actives. However, the sheer volume of user-generated content also generates enormous digital noise. 2/6
It’s 1000x more challenging than getting the attention of people in a busy marketplace; in addition to the countless storefronts, the ad banners, and the hustling salespersons, people have sensory distractions from the innumerable pictures and videos all around them. 3/6

Our mission at the Kids Being Kids Foundation is to improve the welfare and #development of the most #vulnerablechildren through play and extra-curricular activities.
A part of this is their physical #environment, which studies have shown profoundly influences developmental outcomes including academic achievement, cognitive, social and emotional #development.
One of the #vulnerable groups we want to support are the #Children of the Wesley School for the #hearingimpaired in Surulere. Their #landscaping is in dire need of a facelift.
1st speaker at @tasfreelancers conference starting now. is @marcus_bowles, looking at an issue of concern to every freelancer: The Future of Work. HIs argument is that "freelance is the new normal". More on that here: workingfutures.com.au/160620_newnorm…
We are also going to need more soft skills, and more people who are comfortable and experienced in working from home @marcus_bowles tells @tasfree, citing www2.deloitte.com/au/en/pages/ec…; and www2.deloitte.com/au/en/pages/bu…
If you are pivoting into the freelance market, then in the coming months / year, @marcus_bowles has this list of actions for @tasfreelancers, that you need to take. More from that source here: ibm.myinnergenius.com.

Good freaking question: "Why do we continue to make people go through harmful user journeys?"
@maxmasure describes the complicated & cruel procedure to change their name. The family certificates & husband permission...shocking

@jessi_mons and @MadelenaMak advocate for #userresearch to focus less on demographics & more on what people do and who they are. Gender isn't always relevant and methods should reflect that

@baba_Omoloro how about a weekend meet-up on schooling abroad and scholarship opportunities?
It's simple:
*30 participants
*Someone here can get us the venue
*Participants can provide refreshments themselves
*Cost of @boltapp_ng of Peter on me
*Video call with @MomentsWithBren

@callmebukunmi sir, hope you know you are working with @DAdesalu on this aggregation.
OCHA is asking for $216 million to serve the “most vulnerable #Haitians”. We have a plan #UNOCHA. The #Haiti Community Foundation can help you... 1/

Plan for $216 million for #humanitarian assistance.1st: we mobilize #local & regional #community organizations in the 10 departments & make sure to have an inclusive -non-political, list of those most affected, incl. those who often never get the #Aid.Local staff= lower #costs 2/
Plan 4 $216 million for #humanitarian assist.2: w/our humongous costs savings due 2 local #supplies & no expat consultants #costs- we’ll use local consultants,we’ll set up #agriculture #funds for each Departments 4 supplies, training & l-cost financing. #results: 🔝#production 3/
I'm a few years behind the curve; y'all still do follow trains?
Well, I'm starting one. Let's do one about #equitydesign.
@albanvillamil asked if I knew people, places, and tools for equity and design, and I wanted everyone to know everyone.
Spread the word! (1/million)

That being said, like equity work, this isn't (and arguably can't be) the definitive
Equity is a verb, like @_ChristineOrtiz says, so my hope is this is only the beginning.

The idea is to create knowledge skills and making capabilities, with emerging Exponential technologies intersecting smart devices, cloud computing, Artificial Intelligence, nanotechnology, robotics to create products and services that leverage the democratic power of tech. 2/
It's experimentation all the way. Research is okay, but experimentation and prototyping go much farther in understanding problems better and better. That's the design way. Exploring alternatives over picking from existing solutions. We're trying to impact a billion. #PMxD 3/
1/ Organisations need generalist advisers who are not attached to their experience and expertise. Fresh eyes + deep understanding of individuals across cultural divides will mark emerging consulting paradigms. This will put pressure on business schools.
2/ In the words of @davidsrose "All companies designed to succeed in the 20th century are doomed to fail in the 21st century."
Several reasons -
The new world is digital. The new generation is digital. Change is on an accelerating curve. Learning is not. #futureofwork

@davidsrose 3/ Companies are led by people trained on industrial age methods by industrial age academics in industrial age institutions. Leadership is about growing existing portfolios by scaling. #Innovation means disrupting existing mindsets and methods. This is new. #futureofwork
