Digital inclusion, community development and social justice
Manage episode 362270442 series 2889186
When a technology company invited a social worker to join their digital literacy project, it was because they hoped her social work skills would be “nice-to-have” additions to their “need-to-have” skills for teaching people how to use their digital devices. But Anna Morgan had already been contemplating digital inclusion for a long time. Anna brought her social work mindset to the project, called on her community development experience and aimed for social inclusion.
