How will new and emerging technologies affect development in the poorest countries?
Rapid technological change – including artificial intelligence, biotechnology, and robotics – is increasingly shaping our world. What does this mean for developing countries? How can they navigate this shifting landscape, steering a path towards inclusive development and poverty reduction?
The Commission on Technology and Inclusive Development will examine how to turn the potential risks of technological change into opportunities for inclusive development.
"Policymakers in developing countries need practical, evidence-based guidance on steps they can take to harness technology’s potential for development and poverty reduction and mitigate against possible negative effects."
=====
High level conversations over 2 years feeding into "the intersection of the next level technologies, development and inclusivity".
The Commission approach may be of good interest to ICT4D practitioners.
Be blessed.
