As adoption of ICTs by development researchers and organizations becomes more widespread, many uses have emerged - from data collection for monitoring, visualization, and analysis. Join the Development Impact Lab (DIL <http://berkeley.us7.list-manage.com/track/click?u=8d113155700fc4aabeba0f937&id=1697e0a6a9&e=a1670f472f>) and Engineering for Change (E4C <http://berkeley.us7.list-manage.com/track/click?u=8d113155700fc4aabeba0f937&id=a779f90373&e=a1670f472f>) and hear from leading organizations on the challenges of data collection in field research, how data collection has been leverage, and where the data collection field is headed.
