IT for Change is co-organizing a side event, ‘Building an Economic Justice Playbook for WSIS+20: An Expert-led Dialogue,’ at the upcoming 27th Session of the Commission on Science and Technology for Development on 17 April 2024 in Geneva. Join us in envisioning a new and equitable information society with experts from civil society, academia, and research institutions.

The discussion will follow an engaging three-part format: Round 1 will address the adequacy of current policies to tackle challenges, Round 2 will explore what our policy visions should consider, and Round 3 will bring together the steps to build a just path forward.

The conversation will be moderated by our Executive Director, Anita Gurumurthy. She will be joined by a group of stellar speakers:
•    Anriette Esterhuysen, Association for Progressive Communications
•    Angel Gonzalez-Sanz, UNCTAD
•    Neth Dano, ETC Group
•    Tanya O Carroll, People versus Big Tech
•    Abdul Muheet Chowdhary, South Centre
