Education, Technology and Development: Perspectives from Nepal

An afternoon of engaging panel presentations and discussions with guest speaker Rabi Karmacharya, Founder & CEO of the Open Learning Exchange, Nepal.

Technological innovations have revolutionized the ways we communicate, exchange knowledge and ideas, and deliver goods and services. However, this progress has yet to touch the lives many around the world, and the disparity between the privileged and the disadvantaged has been rising. There is an urgent need to leverage technology to level the playing field and provide equitable access to education and opportunities for all. Despite right intentions and large investments, the progress has been slow, and much needs to be done in policies and practices.

Guest speaker Rabi Karmacharya and participating panellists address the potential, challenges and lessons of using technology to uplift the lives of ordinary people, offering examples from Nepal and around the world.
