#NewTool | 📣 Meet The Social Good AI Hub, built by IDinsight in collaboration with @Googleorg .
It’s a free, living repository of AI use cases for funders and implementers working on social challenges.
📊 550+ use cases. 354 organizations. 167 countries.
🧵⤵️
‼️ When should a learner repeat a grade?
📋 With @DepEd_PH & Colectiv, we interviewed 700+ teachers & school leaders in the Philippines.
👩🏫 We asked how they spot learners falling behind & when repetition is the right call.
👉 Here’s what they said: idinsight.org/article/before…
💰 THE RESULTS ARE IN! Your biggest frustration with budget forums: my views get lost. 🗳️
That’s why we built Bajeti Ufahamu 🇰🇪 with @bajeti_hub , a tool that helps every citizen’s budget feedback reach the memo sent to government.

🔍 Use it to:
↪ Browse by sector, geography, and implementation stage
↪ Compare solutions side by side
↪ Ask questions in natural language
🤝 Funders can spot where evidence is growing and where gaps remain. Implementers can learn from peers and reuse tools.

1/ Governments set aside billions each year for families in need. Yet a significant share goes unspent. IDinsight is building #BenefitsAI to address this directly, working with and through government systems.
Four levers stand out: 🧵
5/ 📈 Continuous learning
Monitoring, evaluation, and testing help the system improve over time. Each round of service delivery works better than the last.
6/ 🤝 Our first pilot is with Transform Rural India Foundation, supporting Didis, local women who help families access their entitlements. We’re looking for more partners in India to run quick pilots with us.
