Challenge roundtables part 1: Topic 1 | A tech-enabled approach to inclusion and equity

20 Jan 2026
Challenge Roundtables

How can we “widen the funnel” of digital transformation to ensure no learner is left behind, leveraging cutting-edge technology?

This Challenge Roundtable will examine strategies for embedding equity and accessibility into digital learning, including inclusive design, support for learners with disabilities, gender-responsive policies, and approaches to reach marginalized communities such as those affected by displacement or conflict. In part 1 of the roundtable, participants will build a shared understanding of barriers through empathy mapping and problem framing to explore how to make digital transformation inclusive for all learners.
