Through their voices, we’ve seen how access to skills and opportunities transforms lives. Like the woman who expanded her stall beyond tea, or the shop owner whose new branding drew more customers, boosting her confidence and income.

Scaling Impact That Lasts: Depth and Durability in Development Programs 🚺💜 This International Women’s Day, we celebrate the resilience and growth of women entrepreneurs—not just for a moment, but with a commitment to lasting change. Take the Pushti Ambassador Partnership in Bangladesh, through this initiative, 200 rural women shop owners received training, branding support, and supplier connections. The result? Increased incomes, greater confidence, and stronger roles in their communities. Like Salma, who now runs her business with pride. Or Tahasina, whose shop has become a gathering place where women uplift each other. But real impact isn’t just about immediate success—it’s about durability. Did these gains last? The answer lies in the continued growth of these women despite economic challenges, proving that investment in women entrepreneurs leads to sustainable change. However, sustaining this progress requires more than one program. It takes long-term commitment from businesses, donors, and communities. Because when women thrive, entire communities rise with them. 📖 Read the full story here!

Making digital solutions work for smallholder farmers 🚜 📲 Only 10% of smallholder farmers currently use digital agriculture services. The potential for impact is huge, but challenges—ranging from low digital literacy to affordability constraints—are holding many back. At MWC Barcelona, Johan van der Schaaf, designer and project manager at Bopinc, shared insights in the Digital Agriculture for the Underserved: Adaptive User Research and Impact session. He discussed lessons from GSMA - Mobile for Development AgriTech accelerator, where Bopinc supports agritechs in Africa and Asia with UX design—helping them refine their products and services through user research and inclusive design. This discussion focused on; ▪️ Why is UX research and design important in low—and middle-income countries, and how can agrotech companies leverage this to create a positive impact? ▪️ How can Monitoring & Evaluation (M&E) help track usage and scale digital solutions effectively? 🔗 More details: https://lnkd.in/emkuaUiT #AgriTech #DigitalAgriculture #HumanCenteredDesign #UXforGood #UXDesign #InclusiveDesign
