TIER is a multi-disciplinary research group dedicated to understanding the role of and developing innovative information and communications technologies for developing regions. The TIER Workshop is sponsored by CITRIS, Blum Center for Developing Economies, the School of Information, the College of Engineering, and the National Science Foundation.

Goals

To inform people on TIER’s projects and achievements, as well as upcoming research and plans.
To tell the UC Berkeley and wider communities about cutting edge research for developing regions, telling them both what we have learned, and what questions are being asked, to start thinking in new ways about how to approach technologic solutions for poverty relief.
To invite wider collaboration within the UC Berkeley community, and with outside organizations and other academic communities around technology for developing regions.
