Data Act Lab

Lillejulafton och Somalia’s banbrytande Goaltracker har just lanserats i Mogadishu av den somaliska regeringen. Verktyget gör det möjligt att tracka alla finansiella flöden till Somalia kopplat till de globala hållbarhetsmålen. Jag hade hoppats att kunna ta mig till Mogadishu för lanseringen idag men blev svårt få till all säkerhetsordning, så nu fick det bli per zoomlänk från Lamu istället. Gick bra trots powecuts!
