We launched the podcast "La ronda" to talk with colleagues from different Accelerator Labs around the world.

We launched the podcast "La ronda" to talk with colleagues from different Accelerator Labs around the world.

What sustainable development challenges do we face, what are we doing about them? And, above all, what do we learn? These are some of the questions we ask ourselves every day at the UNDP Paraguay’s Accelerator Lab.

In Paraguay, we drink tereré in rounds, passing water and yerba mate from hand to hand, while sharing our experiences of the day: hence the name of this podcast. In “La ronda”, we talk with colleagues from Labs in different countries to share, understand and learn about what they are doing to accelerate development.

In addition to sharing tereré, we ask each guest team to share with us a typical drink from their country and a bit of their history, so we get to know a little more about the culture of our colleagues.

Each Accelerator Lab has 3 members, one for each phase of the learning cycles they undertake.  In Paraguay they are:

  • Mónica Ríos – Head of Exploration
  • Gustavo Setrini – Head of Solution Mapping
  • Cristhian Parra – Head of Experimentation

 

 

 

The firsts two episodes in spanish, featuring Lab teams from Ecuador and Uruguay, are available in these platforms:
