This afternoon I’m leaving for New York to cover the UN MDG Summit. I’ll be participating in the Digital Media Lounge and will be blogging, pretty much non-stop!
I’ll be covering as much as I possibly can, but here are a few things I’ll be focusing on:
- ICT4D (Information and Communication Technologies for development)- how development and humanitarian agencies are using communications and new tech to reach development goals
- Disaster relief 2.0 – how organizations and governments are using collaborative technologies to better (hopefully) coordinate aid and humanitarian assistance
- Media’s impact on development- what is media’s role? How can we strengthen media?
- If, and how, any of these new technologies better include people with disabilities into development, or whether they have been considered…
I’ll also be covering the Obama and Ban Ki-Moon speeches!

Have a great time. I’m so proud of all you do!
