Announcing the Kenya Sessions Miniseries on the Global Goals Project [Bonus]

Global Goals Project

Over 783 people in the world are living on less than $1.90 per day, and half of those are in sub-saharan Africa. In this introduction, Chandler asks: what is it going to take to tackle the #1 Global Goal and overcome poverty?

Chandler headed to Kenya to find out how access to the internet impacts development in emerging markets. The Global Goals Project will cover three main topics in the upcoming series of interviews with Kenya-based founders:

1. Can we 80/20 the Global Goals? If we pooled all our resources to address two or three key Global Goals… which three goals would those be? Is it possible to address 20% of the Global Goals to get 80% of the results?
2. Access to the Internet. Who has it, what will happen when everyone gets access?
3. The reality of developing emerging markets. What is it like to build a business in an emerging market?

In “The Kenya Sessions” miniseries, you’ll hear about:

• M-Pesa mobile money
• Solar energy development
• Agriculture and tech companies
• Hearing from the World Bank

Thanks to the support from iDev International, we will show what it takes to impact the people in the emerging market you want to help.
