Tech Transfer for Social Work in the Age of COVID Speakers: R. Bong Vergara, Greg Wakatsuki, and Darrel Gooden, hosted by Jen Parga
The COVID-19 outbreak reminds us of how technology affects the global economy and drives social transformation. This lab is a Virtual Innovation Discovery Event (VIDE) that will build an appreciation of tech transfer as a support for social work approaches in community development and social entrepreneurship. This VIDE will (a) push MSWs to design social welfare use-cases for a curated list of tech IP; (b) help MSWs apply systems thinking in addressing overlapping health, sanitation, food, energy, and water sector issues related to COVID-19; and (c) demonstrate how cross-disciplinary solution-making supports innovation for sustainable development. This VIDE is part of the #TechFlattensTheCurve initiative https://www.young-moon.org/techflattensthecurve
