Le Millésime 2022 de la Vigne des Nations à été attribué fin octobre dernier au Geneva Global Hub for Education in Emergencies (Hub mondial de Genève pour l'éducation dans les situations d'urgence).  Chaque année, la Vigne des Nations, située au cœur du Vignoble de l'Etat récompense une organisation internationale ou une association œuvrant pour un monde meilleur. Nous parlons de cette distinction mais aussi de cette organisation en compagnie de Nicole Riedlé responsable des partenariats et de l'engagement politique au Geneva Global Hub for Education in Emergencies. 

Joshua Muskin from Geneva Global talks about the incentives and biases that cause programmers to design "hothouse flowers"--projects that will only work inside the special resource and attention environment of a startup and a pilot. To get to scale, you need to think beyond the hothouse, to what will work under the hardest conditions, not the easiest ones. Who scales, what resources they have, and what their goals and incentives are contribute so much more to scale than having an elegant solution from the outside. "Be more trust based" is just one of Joshua's tips on how to succeed in creating something that could scale.
