Technology& EMPOWERMENT
We face a future of increasing ecological and economic deficits around the planet. Concurrently, we are amidst a global revolution transforming every aspect of our lives. The agent of this revolution is a new family of technologies – broadband, the Internet, microchips, and software – that for the first time draw the world together into a single, coextensive whole. By unleashing the innovative capacity of NGOs and corporations to use technology for good, we have the potential to reverse these deficits.
