| Introduction | Hi, my name is Josh Goldstein, a 2009 masters candidate at the Fletcher School, Tufts University. I'm primarily interested in how the Internet and mobile phones can lower the cost of moving ideas and capital in Africa and around the world. I tackle this challenge through work in the private sector and through writing. On the former, I've worked with Google Inc. on shaping public policy in Africa. On the latter, I work with Harvard's Berkman Center for Internet & Society, exploring the role of digital institutions in promoting entreprenuership in the developing world. Before graduate school, I worked with USAID in Uganda. My writing on these subjects has appeared in Princeton's Journal for Public and International Affairs, Harvard's Berkman Center Working Paper Series and the Fletcher Forum of World Affairs. I blog here and at Harvard's IDBlog, Google's Africa Blog and Global Voices Online. |
