On World Day of #SocialJustice , as we reflect on this year's theme, "Bridging Gaps, Building Alliances," the relevance of the #BudgetByte 3 webinar becomes even more poignant. In partnership with eGov, @ODI_Global and @PublicDigitalHQ , this webinar intricately ties the theme to the space of digital G2P payments demonstrating how technology can serve as a bridge in the pursuit of equitable #socialprotection Featuring expert insights from @anantjnatu of @MicroSave Consulting (MSC) and Prashanth C from eGov on the impactful Just-in-Time Smart Payments technology in Odisha, the session extends the conversation to global experiences from Gareth Clarridge of Universal Credit in the UK and from @andresparrado63 and Vera Lummis on @GiveDirectly 's efforts in Nigeria and Mozambique. This cross-continental dialogue exemplifies the essence of building alliances across sectors and borders to address social justice through digital public finance. Join us in exploring these insights and envisioning a future where technology and partnership pave the way for a more just world. @nckgts | @christy_lowe_1 #TechForGood youtube.com/watch?v=3vrFxV…
