The potential of emerging technologies to unlock development opportunities in priority sectors was also the focus of the event organised by the EU during the Innovation Week, in which three Tanzanian leaders in the field of innovation and drones discussed the opportunities of drone technologies for Tanzania. The discussion built on the lessons learned from the Lake Victoria Challenge Trial and Symposium that took place in Mwanza in October 2018, and the African Drone Forum and Lake Kivu Challenge, which took place in February 2020 in Rwanda. These events were supported by the EU through the Global Facility for Disaster Reduction and Recovery (GFDRR), which is a global partnership that helps poor countries better understand and reduce their vulnerability to natural hazards and climate change.
