UNDP Algeria Accelerator Lab
UNDP Accelerator Lab teams are helping UNDP and partners close the gap between the current practices of international development and an accelerated pace of change. To do this, the Labs are creating new service lines in development that are open‑ended and safe to fail. The Lab network does this by iterating in a cycle of sensing, exploring, testing and growing. <br> - SENSE is about understanding what are emerging challenges and opportunities in the local context and determining where we need to focus our attention. <mark> <br> - EXPLORE is about better understanding the challenge and looking for solutions, particularly by looking at how citizens are already addressing these challenges and opportunities. </mark> <br> - TEST is about designing a portfolio of potential solutions to intervene at multiple points in the system and continuously testing them until we are confident they can work. <br> - GROW is about handing over the portfolio of solutions, advocacy for policy change or spinning solutions off as private ventures.
