Webinar on Digital Inclusivity and Digital Divide
Jul 2020
In response to the pandemic, I started an initiative to raise funds for secondhand refurbished laptops for children from low-income households who needed them for home-based learning. This initiative also led to the development of digital literacy workshops which later inspired students from the CNM Society to develop their programme CNM Cares in 2021. I discussed the digital gaps I see in Singapore in this webinar, and what we can all do about it.
