The FCC’s Communications Equity and Diversity Council is hosting a Digital Ecosystem Forum on Monday. It will be convened virtually, and event details were released on Friday by the Commission.
The event is scheduled from Noon-4:30pm Eastern, and FCC Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel will deliver opening remarks.
“The Diversity and Equity Working Group of the CEDC will bring together industry thought leaders to discuss how the U.S. can provide digital and technology upskilling through multiple avenues, including via non-traditional local and regional anchor institutions, in order to create a more diverse workforce,” the FCC says.
The half-day virtual forum will focus on the future of “work,” with the goal of providing tangible options to ensure that historically underserved populations benefit from next generation technologies.
