Part 2 with @NeelaSaldanha is about applying lessons from the private sector for development. What if a ‘beneficiary’ was rather a ‘customer'? What if service delivery prioritised the product, packaging, pricing & place? #behavioralscience #socialimpact

Community has after all been at the heart of the unit since its inception. This new direction embraces just that. We welcome contributions as we build and grow a network for improving BI-informed policy in the global South and beyond.(2/2) @Bi4Gov @AmMartinus

News! BI4GOV is evolving. Since our 2018 WCG-OECD BI Conference, BI4GOV has functioned as the official BI unit of the WCG. We are now transforming to operate as a broader BI community which will continue to provide a space for contributions from the WCG and other partners. (1/2)

The WCG Innovation Network has officially launched! #PublicSector #innovation can be tricky, but Friday's panel at the (hybrid) launch provided a taste of what connecting and knowledge sharing can lead to! A great collective to be part of.

Partnerships! We know that this is key in the BI field. That’s why we were thrilled to take part in “Organizations in the Spotlight” - a BIOrg initiative which gave us a stage to showcase a #behavioural challenge and hear ideas from experts on the ways this can be solved.
