Introduction


Education for Development and Support Network
Foundation (EDSN) explores affordances of digital
technologies with entrepreneurial philanthropy in
Shared Interest digital Communities (SIC) of
autonomous individuals.
Helps self-help SICs to access appropriate capacity
for partnerships and opportunities emerging
technologies afford while managing side effects
and responsibilities these technologies bring.

Competing Interests


In the wake of the following trends: (1) Reduced
government (2) Need for transparent marshaling
of competing self-interest interests (3) and rapid
changes in the global economy.
EDSN coordinates enabling financial, sociocultural,
and technical scaffoldings to fill important gaps in
community economic development that SICs view
as important, in ways governments, businesses
and traditional civic-institutions can’t afford or
unwilling to provide.
