Introducing "A moment's portal"
Change Darer
Enabling people to become transformational drivers within their organizations through Design Thinking.
Welcome to “A Moment’s Portal”, a podcast that we coproduced with our friends from the Global Innovation Gathering that gives innovation a new point of view through the live stories of 8 different professionals from the Global South who tackled their challenges despite their lack of resources.
But, what is a Moment’s Portal? Is a concept first introduced to Daniela Marzavan by Yannis Angelis during the Campo Virtual Latino- a digital Virtual Campus aimed at empowering social workers, grassroots and environmental communities in Latin America through digital literacy and building empathy through the new digital means.
A story has a start, a middle and an end. A story has a time, place, and conditions around it. Through the first series of our Moment’s portal, you will travel to Egypt, Kenya, Irak, Brasil, India, Sri Lanka, and Nepal. You will meet makers, hackers, designers, and community builders who face challenges related to humanitarian response after an earthquake, setback after a building collapse, the support of the global community in times of financial difficulties, or the peer-to-peer mentorship and empowerment of diversity in tech, personal career paths and how a goat ate the plan.?
A Moment’s Portal tells how a community of concern overcomes challenges together, how people felt when they really felt carried by the Global Innovation Gathering and why despite the common belief, Innovation is not only a ‘western affair’.
On January 29th we launched our Episode 0, followed by two more episodes (1 and 2) launched on February 2nd and 16th.?
We invite you to meet Fadia, Gabriela and Salih traveling back in time with them and witnessing 3 amazing stories from 3 amazing individuals.
