Lost Taken Over The World! 1st Stop: Washington DC!!!!


It's official, I am heading stateside the middle of the month in March! I I am pretty excited. Has definitely been way to long since I last stepped foot on American soil and of all places to go, Washington DC! Perfect I have been tell you all along, DC is fondly lingering in my memory pallets. 

I was hoping to catch a flight back to SA before coming home, but well not so sure now I will be able to managed that, but hey for all those I have disappointed, fear not this isn't the first or the last trip back and well I am pretty determined to make my way back. 

And yes I do miss you terrible and already thinking of when and how I can make '"IT'" happen!!

Any ideas folks???? I am giddy and smitten with the idea of all the exciting things we could do and will do! I keep trying to convince a certain someone, who I shall not name at this point...I wish you were here, even in silence, with nothing to say, nothing to rebut as much as I absolutely love your rebuttals!

Well, I have attached the Global Meeting On Civic Engagement for those who are wondering where I am headed to and why!!! hehe




Citizen Voices will focus on citizen engagement and feedback systems that strengthen the quality of policy making and the science of service delivery, and where the impact on the poor is most direct.  

The conference will bring together tech innovators, development specialists, government officials, academics, civil society representatives, World Bank staff and the private sector where experience with client feedback systems is the deepest. Sessions will include discussions exploring how innovative uses of technology can be transformational, how governments can be more responsive and how we ensure citizen feedback is robust.  The conference will close by generating ideas for how we proceed as a collective in advancing the citizen engagement agenda.

The conference will be held Monday March 18, from 8:30-6:00 pm at the International Finance Corporation Auditorium, 2121 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, Washington, D.C.
Virtual participation is open to the public; physical participation will be by invitation only.
