Our FeedbackMechanisms.org site houses resources and case studies on building ways for communities to help govern projects. It had some broken links. We fixed them! Now back to sleep. feedbackmechanisms.org/public/files/S… #MERLTech
The first day of the full #MERLTech conference is a great day to commit to evidence-based practice in Tech for Social Change! ICYMI our M&E Framework: simlab.org/resources/mand… #tbt We miss you all.
ICYMI, we wrote a playbook of the strategies you could use to disseminate content on basic phones, and it's on the internet for free. Enjoy! #tbt #inclusivetech #digitalforall zpr.io/nDJuW
ICYMI, the SIMLab Monitoring and Evaluation Framework is revised and updated, and launched with new evaluation criteria based on the #digitalprinciples #merltech #digitalforall zpr.io/nKftx
Our former CEO, @techladylaura, launching the new #M&E Framework on the @DIAL_Community site! zpr.io/nKftx
This week we launched the new and improved #M&E of Tech Framework, supported by @DIAL_Community. It turns the #digitalprinciples into evaluation criteria! We're still working on improving this so have a read and tell us what you think. zpr.io/nhrf3
Free stuff! SIMLab, @intrac_uk, @cdalearning, and @WorldVisionUK tested feedback mechanisms for three years, and shared resources, case studies and a report on a dedicated website #tbt zpr.io/nmT3q
A barrier to evidence in #ICT4D is missing ops data e.g. about staff cost and time. @kellyMchurch reflected on that challenge for our #mobilemoney project back in 2016 #tbt zpr.io/nEdPG
#tbt 3 months to the #redrose hack. 3 things your COO should be doing, TODAY to head off reputational, legal and operational risks around #responsibledata security and management: zpr.io/nxhiM
We were still working on a few ideas when we closed. We put them online in case anyone wants 'em... #tbt #freetoagoodhome zpr.io/nXYv7
Today, #tbt to last year's consultation paper on the current realities of #responsibledata in civil society - @techladylaura is presenting our research at #ssirdata later this afternoon! zpr.io/nNNAD
Looking back, @katgatewood's seven #nonprofit new year's resolutions were eerily prescient. Compare to @techladylaura's posts about our closing: zpr.io/naawV #tbt #socent zpr.io/naawB
#tbt to @kellyMchurch's case study of our Kenya #MobileMoney project, feat. @FrontlineSMS Payments! We also publicly released the independent evaluation. zpr.io/nTsJA
Before we closed, we put all of our resources for ethical, evidence-based tech projects online for free. Check them out #tbt #responsibledata #merltech #commisaid #ict4d zpr.io/nYZfD
#tbt to @keithporcaro's post showing you how to build the SMS appointment reminders and surveys we implemented using @FrontlineSMS for @baylegaljustice's low-income Bay Area clients zpr.io/nsGDx
