Connecting the Unconnected Challenge

Internet access is critical to education, industry, and healthy living. Unconnected populations lack access to buy and sell goods and services online. Students lack access to the abundance of remote learning opportunities. During the pandemic, working or studying from home was impossible for unconnected populations. For many, the lack of internet access forced them to make a choice between their well being or earning a living, and many offline students received no education at all. An increasingly connected global economy leaves such workers and students with few options.
