Work4Progress is a programme launched by the ”la Caixa” Foundation with the objective of generating new employment opportunities for women and young adults in India, Mozambique and Peru through open platforms for social innovation.
The ”la Caixa” Foundation and their partner organisations launched an open innovation challenge in 2019 targeted at supporting the work currently being developed within the W4P geographies.
The Work4Progress Challenge has implemented solutions from tech innovators within the following areas of action:
How might we use Information and Communication Technology (ICT) to create virtual co-working spaces for young women (18-25) in Eastern Uttar Pradesh, thereby enhancing access to entrepreneurial work opportunities?
How could we take advantage of technology to improve efficiency, especially of weeding and preparing the land, and to increase the productivity in Cabo Delgado?
How could we use technology to improve efficiency in the distribution and use of water for irrigation in the high-mountain regions of Cusco?
