The Future Of: User-Centered Collaboration in Global Development
The Future Of series is a set of conversations and moments designed to shape what’s next for global development. This session, hosted by IDEO.org, Opportunity Collaboration, and Public Digital, takes on the future of collaboration.
Global development is at a crossroads. Funding is scarce, trust is frayed, and local communities are rightfully gaining back power. At the same time, technology is rapidly reshaping how we collaborate, opening space for new ways of working together.
As part of the Future Of series, this session will bring together design thinkers, digital innovators, and policy and funding experts to ask: What if a user-centered approach to collaboration could unlock new pathways forward?
Join us for perspectives from leaders in the field, then jump into an interactive Creative Tension exercise that will surface the push and pull between tradition and innovation, local control and global goals, scaling up and staying sustainable.
