The rise of #ArtificialIntelligence prompts a discussion on how societal wealth is distributed #UBI 'We all contribute to #AI should we get paid for that?' https://t.co/Xr8Ia4Jtw1 via @techcrunch

[Doreen Bogdan-Martin @ITUSecGen]

Our @ITU @UNICEF @Gigaglobal has big ambitions -to connect every school to the Internet by 2030- and big ambitions require equally ambitious partners!
Because the faster tech moves, the deeper the digital divide grows.
Because half the world’s schools are still offline

The amazing @Gigaglobal team made it through 6 different presentations, 10+ serious partner meetings (watch for a new nerd company to join giga soon working on connectivity credits) and 10+km of walking through the conference every day @naroanaiz

[Giga @Gigaglobal]

Great to be featured by @wef on our recent work in #Kyrgyzstan & #Kenya. Connecting the most remote schools to the Internet is no easy feat — Thanks to @InternetSociety & @LiquidInTech for your hard work & dedication.

📣 The #ConnectivityDeclaration was launched today at the #RewirEdSummit!

Developed by @UNESCO with support of @DubaiCares, it proposes normative principles to steer digital transformation of education 💡

H.E. Dr. Tariq Al Gurg, CEO of Dubai Cares shares his thoughts. ⬇️

[David Moinina Sengeh @dsengeh]

The world has already spent hundreds of millions of USD on different national #EdTech solutions. This doesn't make sense- we need to take a stand to #opensource all #EdTech platforms & frameworks as #DigitalPublicGoods to achieve @Education2030UN #SDG4 targets Now! #EquityInTech

[Marija Novkovic @MariaNovkovic]
