Title NTCA Digital Inclusion Webinar
Description Digital inclusion is top of mind with states having submitted their Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment (BEAD) initial proposals last month, but community-based broadband providers have deployed digital inclusion strategies long before such efforts were anticipated to respond to regulatory standards. Join NTCA CEO Shirley Bloomfield, Kathryn de Wit from the Pew Charitable Trusts, NTCA Vice President of Policy and Industry Innovation Josh Seidemann and two Smart Rural Community™ providers to learn more about resources available to help communities develop digital equity plans and rural providers’ efforts to ensure ubiquitous access to, and engagement with, robust broadband.
Start Date January 30, 2024

NTCA, Pew Research, and rural ISPs will gather for a digital inclusion webinar this Tuesday (Jan. 30) aimed at helping communities build digital equity plans. for a conversation about building digital inclusion in rural communities. This webinar is open to the public at no charge. In addition to a terrific conversation, we will share our SMART toolkit for building digital inclusion plans building on our paper Rural Imperatives in Broadband Adoption and Digital Inclusion. I think a lot of the issues relate to the work of the GCTC.
