Our publication of The Power of (Making) Futures, Innovation Report 2024 highlights nine pioneering initiatives that are redefining the parameters of international development cooperation and social justice. A key feature of this report is the case study on the HEVA Fund, which empowers women and gender minorities as media practitioners. Since its inception in 2013, the HEVA Fund has played a critical role in supporting the creative sectors across East Africa, including in Kenya, Rwanda, Uganda, Ethiopia, and Tanzania. Through innovative financial models and training, the fund boosts sustainability in diverse fields such as fashion and gaming. This example illustrates the significant potential of targeted financial and educational support in enhancing the vitality of the creative industries. It also demonstrates the impact of empowering local initiatives that address systemic power imbalances in development narratives. For further insights into how the HEVA Fund and other initiatives are making strides in development practices, we invite you to read the full report. https://lnkd.in/exWUhkSd International Civil Society Centre Partos #InnovationReport2024 #ThePowerOfMakingFutures #SocialJustice #CreativeEconomy #HevaFund #EmpoweringCreativity

Don't Miss Our #HLPF Side Event on Inclusive Development in New York 🌻 We are excited to invite you to our side event in New York focused on how Citizen Data can act as a catalyst to advance SDGs 16 and 17. This event will take place on 15 July 2024, from 1.15 to 2.30 pm at the UN Church Center, 2nd Floor, 777 United Nations Plaza, New York. Online participation at the event is possible! The event is co-hosted by the International Civil Society Centre / Leave No One Behind Partnership, the Danish Institute for Human Rights, the Kenya National Bureau of Statistics, and the United Nations Statistics Division. Together with our audience, we will delve into how Citizen Data can strengthen accountability and foster an inclusive society, promoting collaboration across sectors and borders to enhance the implementation of the SDGs. You can register here for in-person or online attendance: https://lnkd.in/ewH8BbYW More detailed information: Inclusive development means that everyone benefits from public development processes, yet current official statistics often overlook the specific situations of marginalised groups. Citizen Data, driven by local communities, offers a promising solution to this data challenge, providing insights into the local drivers of exclusion and helping to inform more inclusive planning processes. In our side event, we will highlight the work and practices of Citizen Data practitioners from Africa and Asia. Through dialogues with statisticians and global experts, we will explore the role of Citizen Data in creating a more inclusive, rights-driven, and participatory development landscape. We will also discuss the new Copenhagen Framework for Citizen Data that was co-developed by the LNOB Partnership and its strategic partners last year, and recently commended by the UN Statistics Commission, and which is meant to guide both civil society and governments around the globe in the production and use of Citizen Data. Together with our partners, we want to raise awareness about the value of Citizen Data in elevating the perspectives of marginalised communities and its potential to make public planning more inclusive. Attendees of our side event will have the opportunity to engage in discussions on how inclusive data approaches can be utilised in the remaining years of the "SDG decade of action" to ensure that no one is left behind. Join us to contribute to this critical dialogue and help shape a more inclusive future. See you there! 🙌 Peter Koblowsky, Elizabeth Lockwood, Haoyi Chen, Saionara Reis, Sarah Omache - MAE, annie namala, George Awalla #LeaveNoOneBehind #CitizenData #SDGs #InclusiveDevelopment #GlobalGoals

Join our Digital Dialogue on Ethics and Accountability in Civic Tech Development this Thursday 04 July | 16:00-17:00 CEST/CAT The development of new technologies presents both opportunities and challenges. Often, end-users are not involved in the development process, leaving developers with limited insight into potential risks until after the product is launched. This lack of early accountability has led to inadequate personal data protection, environmental violations, and the spread of misinformation and deep fakes. Civic Technology, or 'Tech for Good', must address these ethical issues to truly fulfil its purpose. We can create ' responsible technology ' by integrating ethical considerations from the start. Join us as we delve into the key questions for developing responsible tech and discuss accountability in civic technology development. We'll also explore who should ensure end-users are protected from unethical practices. Register here: https://lnkd.in/eENiSW9e In partnership with Civic Tech Innovation Network 🤝
