Digital Literacy Today
The pandemic abruptly accelerated the importance of technology in our ordinary daily lives, particularly for those least inclined to use online tools partly due to a lack of basic technology education. It became clear that marginalized communities are woefully unprepared for a more robust digital future, and that we must take immediate action to create new pathways for success. Communities require Web3 fundamental education to be prepared for the world of new technologies.
