with everything coming out of megaplex this year, this feels worth sharing. end overdose has a free online course about how to respond to suspected overdoses. it only takes ~20 minutes and you get a free naloxone kit mailed to you at the end. (it also features a very cute cat)

Graphic with text promoting Overdose Awareness Month in August, featuring a cartoon cat and naloxone nasal spray, with a call to support ending overdose. website link is endoverdose.net or @end.overdose on instagram

i cannot overemphasize how much supporting your peers makes a difference you gotta not navel-gaze you gotta help your friends when you are able to you gotta share more than just your own work you HAVE GOTTA support your peers

Badge test! Got a decent print place nailed down and worked out a laminator~ These don't sell super well nowadays but IDC cause they're fun to make. I should be able to start offering them next week with USA shipping.

Incredible. When E—n M—k & his crew obliterated USAID in a weekend, they deleted a vast trove of publicly-funded knowledge: the Development Experience Clearinghouse. A Canadian high school student (!) happened to have downloaded the entire thing for a project. AidData has now posted it for all.

Before reimagining development data, remember what we’ve learned

Why we’re publishing a free, searchable, and ungated archive featuring a quarter-century of USAID evaluation reports.
