| UNESCO Chair in ICT4D session at WSIS Forum 2017 |
| Date | Friday 16th June 2017 |
| Location | WSIS Forum 2017 Geneva |
| Description | The key premise of the workshop is that the global spread of ICTs has increased inequality, and that the poorest and most marginalised have therefore failed sufficiently to benefit. The workshop will explore whether the continued focus on the ways through which ICTs can contribute to economic growth will inevitably lead to ever increasing, and dangerous, inequality, and will make recommendations as to how different stakeholders can best ensure that the poorest and most marginalised can indeed benefit from their use. |
