Session description
What will it take to recouple connectivity with inclusive and meaningful internet access?
While we are far from the finishing line, there has been immense progress and innovation in bringing more and more of the world’s population online. However, these successes have underlined the limitations of a connectivity-only approach to enabling societies through the internet. They point to the need to think more deeply both about the diversity of actions needed within dedicated digital inclusion strategies, as well as the place of internet governance decision-making within wider policy agendas, such as education, urban development and culture.
This flash session will provide an opportunity, drawing on lessons from over the days of EuroDIG, to share reflections and ideas on what the components of a comprehensive and integrated approach to meaningful access could be, with a particular focus on how pre-existing multi-purpose centres such as libraries can be better mobilised to this end. The conclusions will feed into ongoing work to establish how we can better integrate and realise the potential of such infrastructures.
