On this episode of Digital Inclusion Exchange, we're continuing our #SpreadtheTech series with the National Digital Inclusion Alliance.

This series is brought to you through a sponsorship with Verizon to help digital inclusion practitioners adjust to the new challenges brought on by COVID-19.

In this episode, we will be listening to one of the NDIA's Net Inclusion Webinar Series, first recorded on October 21st, 2020, "What new digital inclusion models (partners and funding) are coming together due to the pandemic?"

Speakers:

  • Nicole Umayam; Digital Inclusion Library Consultant at Arizona State Library, Archives and Public Records
  • Christa Wagner Vinson; Program Officer at Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC)
  • Kami Griffiths; Executive Director/Co-founder at Community Tech Network
  • Lazone Grays Jr; Instructional Facilitator, Streets University at IBSA, Inc.

The NDIA's Net Inclusion Conference has been a staple in the #DigitalInclusion community for years, bringing hundreds of practitioners, advocates, academics, Internet service providers, and policymakers together to share their knowledge.

With social distancing in place, the NDIA hosted the "Net Inclusion 2020 Webinar Series" to replace the conference. This Series included eight one-hour webinars recorded live from September 16th through November 4th.
