Why we do what we do?

The most pressing problems facing our society today call for innovative approaches to solving them. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) must be achieved by 2030. As this deadline approaches, it is clear that progress towards these goals is uneven across regions and countries. While some countries have made significant progress towards achieving the SDGs, others have lagged behind, and in some cases, certain situations (such as the Covid-19 pandemic, and other social inequalities linked to ICT access and affordability) have slowed progress towards the goals. It's possible that not all the SDGs will be fully achieved by 2030; that's why, as Bingwa Civic Tech Lab, we've aligned ourselves within the Decade of Action to accelerate progress towards achieving the SDGs by 2030. That's why we strive to promote the co-creation, collaboration and implementation of digital solutions to address the challenges facing the world and achieve the goals.
