A frame, simply put, is an approach to recast or reorganise how we think about a problem or a challenge. It helps us see the world from a distinct vantage point by magnifying certain elements and minimising others.
The Goalkeepers report is a great way for me to dig deeper into where we have reached on the SDGs, what gaps exist and where and what we can do better to bridge them.
It is undeniable that we are living in the age of data. I believe we need an intersectional feminist lens to think about and design for empowering communities to see, sense and solve the problems they face.
