#BuildBackBetter Digital Conversations: Bridging the Digital Divide
On September 8, 2020, we brought together four speakers to explore bridging the digital divide.
Canadaโs digital divide is widening the social divide. Exacerbated by the pandemic, reliable high-speed internet is ever more required to access services and programs, as well as to do work and learn. But whoโs gaining access and whoโs being left behind?
What are the systemic barriers to digital access and how might we bridge the digital divide?
We dove into key findings of a recent research report on this question conducted by Canada Internet Registry Authority (CIRA), and explored how funders play a role in bridging the growing digital divide.
