You have the opportunity to participate in USAID's first - ever open source
challenge for the chance to win a $10,000 grant for the idea for the best
mobile phone application to solve a pressing international development
issue. We're trying to draw in innovation at USAID through nontraditional
sources, and you can help. Please enter the 2008 USAID Development 2.0
Challenge or funnel this announcement to your listservs to encourage
budding innovators you know to enter at www.netsquared.org/usaid!
There are only ten days left to present your most innovative ideas for a
mobile technology application to address pressing issues in food security,
health, or other socioeconomic areas in developing countries. Your entries
will be judged by a renowned panel of experts from the public and private
sector and foundations, and you could win a $10,000 grant. The process is
simple. Your idea could be used in a developing country by USAID to improve
the work that it does to help people prosper. Please share the attached
document that explains the USAID Development 2.0 Challenge with anyone you
know who may be interested . The deadline for entries is December 5th.
If you're simply interested in the open source challenge process, please
visit www.netsquared.org/usaid and click on the Project Gallery to review
what's there. Your comments and suggestions on each entry can help to create
the most sustainable solutions for international development, because
applicants can modify their entries as they receive feedback.
