The World Bank ICT Solutions Day was a day-long session where client countries and internal and external experts came together to get hands-on experience on developing Smart Solutions using information and communications technologies (ICT) to tackle development challenges. This event was centered around leveraging the best global thinking to explore the power of collective intelligence and the latest technology enablers to co-create smart solutions across the sectors. Theresa Pardo and Meghan Cook participated as open data experts and international consultants to engage participating countries in design thinking – a client-driven, open, collaborative process of building up meaningful ICT-enabled solutions that will address the challenges in a new way.
