Digital inclusion isn’t something new. But this is.

Frameworks from UN organizations, grassroots projects from NGOs, and initiatives from the private sector are all contributing towards digital inclusion. We aim to radicalize this movement by bringing together these different actors for an interdisciplinary dialogue. 

And that’s why we hosted the Digital Inclusion Summit in July 2021 with over 100 like-minded individuals. And that’s also why we brought together artists from over 90 countries to enter in the Posterheroes Becoming e-Quals poster competition.

If we look at digital inclusion from a 360° point of view, what new insights, new perspectives, and new visions might emerge through this cross fertilization? Here’s the result.

Caught your eye? At the Digital Inclusion Summit, we explored, mixed, and shook up 4 radical ideas about what digital inclusion means for lifelong learning. Through this exchange, we crowdsourced 42 provoking ways to take action without leaving anyone behind online (or offline). Join our journey from 4 to 42.

This co-created publication covers three areas:

• The e-volution of inclusive learning

Harnessing technology for good impacts individuals and communities both online (and offline). Before digging in, get some background on digital inclusion in adult learning.
