The Innovation Lab
How can innovation lead to poverty reduction? Can technology help achieve social and economic inclusion? What should be done to help the poor take advantage of technological development? These are the questions we try to answer in the Innovation Lab.
The Science and Technology Division of IDB is supporting a range of projects that use technology and innovation for social and economic inclusion. This website will show current and past programs as well as information on upcoming events for your participation.
