How are we using education and research to bridge the digital divide?

ABOUT THIS WEBINAR
Back in 2021, we brought together practitioners, thought leaders, and authors to discuss ‘bridging the digital divide’ at the Forum for Educators – addressing how disparities in access to technology could be furthering inequalities in attaining an education.

Two years on and facing a new set of challenges and opportunities in today’s world, we are revisiting this topic as part of our commitment towards Reduced Inequalities. Whilst for some, digital education is about how we incorporate new developments in AI into learning and research, for others the first barrier is reliable, affordable online access.

This expert panel discussed the practical steps we need to take to ensure that digital technology in education and research works for the whole world.
