Technology, AI, and the Future of Funding <> Convening hosted by Project Tech4Dev x Dasra
Technology, data, and AI are increasingly shaping how NGOs design programmes, deliver services, and scale impact. As organisations continue to experiment with and apply these capabilities, this is an opportunity to reflect on how funding approaches can keep pace.
Project Tech4Dev and Dasra are convening funders, NGOs, and ecosystem partners to explore how technology and AI are being supported across the development sector. The session will share emerging examples and consider what meaningful support — through funding, partnerships, and ecosystem approaches — could look like going forward.
We hope you will join us for this exchange of perspectives.
