Collab is a Guatemalan non-profit civil association that promotes technology and education as tools for development and social change.

No, Collab does not take sides: its role is to bring the State, the private sector and civil society to the same table to discuss technology with data.

Once a month we hold an in-person event in Guatemala City to discuss a technology and public-policy topic with the State, the private sector and civil society.

The programs are for people, communities and institutions in Guatemala who want to learn or strengthen their technology skills.

Not always, because each program lists its requirements and the digital inclusion program starts from scratch.

Collab programs are offered at basic cost, and the amount for each cohort is published on the program page before enrollment opens.

You sign up with the form on each program page, and we email you with the next steps.

Each program says whether it is in person, online or hybrid, and the digital inclusion programs are taught in the communities.

A briefing is a short analysis that Collab publishes every two weeks to explain what changes in technology and public policy in Guatemala, and for whom.

The Collab team prepares each briefing from public, verifiable sources, and says where every figure comes from.

Yes, you can quote and share Collab briefings and reports as long as you name the source and link to the original publication.

Your organization can partner with Collab by writing to us from the contact page with the topic “Partnerships” and an idea of what you want to do together.

You can help by sharing the programs and briefings with people who need them, and by writing to us if you want to give your time or knowledge.

Collab works with three kinds of partnership: technical backing, financial support for a program or study, and equal partnerships for joint projects.

Collab uses the data you send only to reply to you or provide the service you asked for, and asks only for what is necessary.
