Series: U.S. Politics, NetSquared, International Politics, D.C.
The first episode of D.C. NetSquared's Podcast Series! Organized by EchoDitto's Michael Silberman, this Meetup convenes once a month to discuss how technology canbe used to propel social change.
At our June meetup last Tuesday (June 20), we were joined by Ian Schuler, the ICT
Project Manager at the National Democratic Institute (or NDI) who kicked off a conversation about how mobile technologies can be used in the political realm. Specifically, he covered NDI's operation in Montenegro last month, during which SMS technologies were successfully employed to monitor the May 21 referendum on withdrawal from the Union of Serbia and Montenegro.
