{{more citations needed|date=January 2018}}The Principles for Digital Development are a set of nine guidelines that were established to promote effective practices in technology-enabled programmes for international development and cooperation.[1] A community of practice around the principles provides a focal point for development practitioners, supporting the sharing knowledge and peer learning. The Principles go back to the UNICEF Innovations Principles (2009–2010).[2] A "Principles for Digital Development Working Group" was launched in 2014, followed by an endorsement campaign in 2015.name=history>See https://digitalprinciples.org/about for an overview of the history of the Principles.
