Listen Later

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 November 4th, 2020, "How did the pandemic change digital inclusion work – on the ground and in policy?"

Speakers:

  • Angela Siefer; Executive Director at National Digital Inclusion Alliance
  • Yosef Getachew; Director, Media and Democracy Program at Common Cause
  • Adrianne Furniss; Executive Director at Benton Institute for Broadband & Society

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.
