Re-thinking the Policy Making Process for today's needs | Betty Tushabe | TEDxRugando

Policymakers understand that Policy is a complex and even more so in an era of unprecedented access to knowledge. Policies that are reflective thus require that governments innovate. What tools already exist to enable this approach? Betty Tushabe is currently heading a capacity building project for the United Nations Industrial
Development Agency (UNIDO) in Kigali, Rwanda, where she manages a team responsible for
developing and executing the Rwanda National Industrial Research and Development Agency’s
(NIRDA) strategy which provides a blueprint for how NIRDA assists enterprises address
technological and technical barriers to their growth and competitiveness. Before joining UNIDO,
Betty also worked with the Strategy and Policy Unit (SPU) in the Office of the President, Kigali
Rwanda.
Betty is passionate about innovation, research and technology policies, private sector
development, youth and women empowerment and is a co-founder of SpokenWordRwanda
(SWR), a platform that promotes poetry, spoken word and arts in Rwanda. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
