Educational Program: The Critical Role of Technology in Advancing Human Security for All

EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM ORGANIZED BY THE ASSOCIATION OF FOREIGN PRESS CORRESPONDENTS (AFPC-USA)

Technology can be used for good or bad. Garry Jacobs runs an organization founded by Albert Einstein, Bertrand Russell, and Robert Oppenheimer in 1960, that realized the development of nuclear fission had both peaceful and devastating applications. Today, Jacobs wants to harness the power of technology to help close equity gaps by reaching the most vulnerable children and youth, and ensuring learning continues in times of crisis.
