Paradigm Initiative has launched its first Digital Rights and Inclusion Learning Lab (DRILL), with a mission to host innovative learning around digital rights and inclusion in Africa.
Operating from its new headquarters in Lagos, Nigeria, the Learning Lab will involve, and connect, different stakeholders and create dialogue amongst researchers, social innovators, policymakers and actors, the private sector, as well as civil society. DRILL will also offer a space for big thinking, evaluation of digital rights and digital inclusion programs, and future-proofing ecosystem activities, amongst others.
A DRILL Fellowship is expected to commence by February 2020, with Paradigm Initiative covering the costs associated with learning activities at the Lab and providing office space, an opportunity to be embedded within its team, access to the ecosystem, and feedback on projects throughout the duration of the Fellowship.
