Reflecting on #CIES2025 Chicago, where I presented how technological and digital divide in education drives the divide in employment and socio-economic development for youth with disabilities. Gender, blind and those with vision impairment are most affected by the digital divide.

We were delighted to share the results of our fieldwork at CIES 2025, exploring how the #Conversations4Citizenship podcast impacts global and digital literacy among American and Korean college students.

It’s a wrap for #CIES2025 where I discussed that #DigitalDivide isn’t just about access-it’s about opportunity. We must commit to policies and interventions that ensure young people with disabilities have the tools they need to thrive. #InclusiveEducation #TechForGood #Sightsavers #Chicago

Wrapping up at #CIES2025 with a full heart. It was so lovely to reconnect with old friends and meet new ones. Feeling incredibly lucky to be surrounded by such supportive, thoughtful, and insightful peers. Until next time!
Enjoyed this presentation to end #CIES2025 in Chicago. We have to keep supporting international education.
While #EiE interventions are meant to meet the needs of children, they are rarely meaningfully involved in the process.
At the #CIES2025 Conference the GEC spoke about child participation in EiE research so that children's views can inform decision-making and more effective responses.
