The annual ICT4D Conferences have proven to be an invaluable opportunity for NGOs, private sector organizations, universities, governmental agencies and foundations to share their experience in using ICT to increase the impact of development programs and to learn from each other. In 2016, 715 individuals from 76 countries and 301 private sector and public sector and civil society explored the ways to harness the full power of digital solutions to achieve the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals. Our thanks to Accenture, Catholic Relief Services, Esri, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, iMerit Technology Services, Inmarsat, IS Solutions, Making All Voices Count, Mercy Corps, Microsoft, NetHope, Oxfam, Pandexio, Qualcom Wireless Reach, RTI International, SimbaNet and World Vision for making that possible.
We will showcase Christian Aid Kenya’s Health projects working with the mHealth platform and other digital data gathering and analysis tools. We will not only showcase our technology platform but also demonstrate how we have integrated various aspects of programming in our work. In particular providing solutions that are responsive to the needs of the communities we work with and how these are sensitive to their cultural dynamics and other practical needs.
