3. Solve on a small scale & network to spread for global impact
How can we empower people solve on a small scale, and network to spread for global impact?

The third break out group came up with these recommendations on Solving on a Small Scale for Big Impact: How we can listen to better effect and assist people on the ground to provide services in their communities, set up network to spread the solutions to all seeking them

  • Utilize local talent to drive investment in building capability- identify problem to be solved in each community, enlist entrepreneurs to run with it
  • Provide structure and assistance based on what is requested and defined by people and their objectives
  • Defining audience is key – it will be different in each country, for each MDB, Aid organization
  • Increase opportunities for motivated youth and women entrepreneurs
  • Be proactive to avoid digital or techno colonialism assuming “we know best” what others want or need or want to work on

Governments need to be part of the solution –approaches which align and work top down and bottom up concurrently – seeding and funding entrepreneurs, networks and universities – governments can remove obstacles, provide investment funding to make it happen. Countries themselves can figure out the top down, bottom up appropriate to get to the results they seek – the big We = the big THEY.

Public Private Partnerships: Accountable, effective and supported by tools that enable local and global partnerships to deliver outcomes for all, especially the most vulnerable

Engage and enlist the Diaspora and Re-aspora - the Diaspora that returned to Vietnam. Powerful untapped resources can bring back knowledge, capital, contacts – help their families: Intellectual remittance combined with financial remittance multiplies impact to benefit people’s lives.
