Listen "The Power of Digital Accessibility"
Episode Synopsis
Richard Thanki, economist and computer scientist, has centered his tech startup Jangala around the question: how do we extend internet access to vulnerable populations? . Jangala, a UK based charity, enables internet access for people in need of urgent humanitarian aid, especially refugees. Jangala was featured during Expo 2020 Dubai's Travel and Connectivity Week, where Richard - as a child of refugees from Uganda - spoke about his connection to the topic of connectivity for all, and his firm belief that the future is already here, it’s just not evenly distributed. This podcast is by Expo 2020 Dubai’s Programme for People and Planet, and produced by Kerning Cultures Network.
