Podcast: A conversation with Erik Hersman from Ushahidi
WeMedia is podcasting!
Beginning today, WeMedia will produce a regular podcast that features in-depth interviews with prominent media, technology, and social change figures, as well as distinguished experts on current affairs and news. Our goal is to provide the WeMedia community understand the roots of the changes taking place in our society, hear from the thinkers and doers who are on the front lines, really understand the difficulties facing the media, consumers, and others — all while being somewhat entertaining.
Our first podcast is a conversation with Erik Hersman, the founder of Ushahidi and a WeMedia GameChanger Award winner. The conversation focuses on crowdsourcing of news and social change, technology and innovation in Africa, soccer, and more. Click below to listen.
(This is our first podcast, so we have lots of room for improvement. We know that, we we want your help. We welcome your suggestions for how to improve the podcast, as well as ideas for guests and topics for future recordings.)
