Lastly, in support of our work in Nigeria and to highlight the launch of NMIS, members of the SEL team attended the National Perspective in Localising the Post 2015 Agenda: Lessons from the Inter-Governmental Partnership in the Implementation of the MDGs hosted by the Office of the Senior Special Assistant to the President on the Millennium Development Goals, Nigeria.
The events created further discussion in the lab and we’re eager to continue our work researching and engineering innovative ways to help achieve sustainable international development.
