A Think 20 (T20) summit dialogue is convened by the Association for Progressive Communications, the UK Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office and UNESCO with the T20 Task Force on Digital Transformation, as a side event fo the South Africa’s G20 presidency.
With digital inclusion gaining prominence in global forums like the G20, the World Summit on the Information Society 20-year review and the UN Pact for the Future’s Global Digital Compact, this side event provides an unprecedented opportunity to scale alternative connectivity models. It brings together insights from the T20's Digital Transformation and Financing for Sustainable Development task forces, and builds on the collaborative work of the Local Access Programme of the Association for Progressive Communications, the UK’s Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office, UNESCO through the application of the ROAM-X framework and their partners.
Supported by the UK Digital Access Programme, the objective and theme of the event are fully aligned with the UK’s approach to digital development: supporting inclusive, responsible and sustainable digital transformation in partner countries.
The concept note and agenda of the event are available here.
