DAY 2

12 Sep 2023 Tuesday 14:30

Abstract:
The pace of technological change is only increasing. While it can open many ways of bridging the Sustainable Development Goals, each technological leap brings serious risks and ethical concerns. Philanthropy needs to play a stronger role in guiding the use of technology to be safe and equitable, while at the same time helping grantees and itself in embracing the best aspects of new technology.

This panel will highlight the transformative role of technology and discuss how philanthropies can shape their deployment.
