The National Digital Inclusion Alliance (NDIA’s) Net Inclusion 2023 is taking place from February 28 through March 2 at the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center in San Antonio, Texas. The conference brings together 800 digital inclusion practitioners, policymakers, advocates, researchers, and other digital inclusion leaders as they explore ways to eliminate digital inequity.

This year’s topics include device access, digital inclusion in workforce development and healthcare programs, digital skills curriculum with equity at the forefront, advancing digital equity coalition work, how practitioners can apply digital equity research, using a racial equity lens to advance digital equity, and more. A full schedule is available on Net Inclusion’s site.

On March 1st, join Cristal Mojica, the Michelson 20MM Foundation’s Senior Program Manager for Digital Equity, to discuss Fundraising for Sustainable Digital Equity Programs. With historic levels of funding for digital inclusion work from state and federal governments and private funders, this is the time to learn how to write impactful proposals to secure funding for your community. The panel will share an overview of how to develop grant proposals, identify opportunities, learn best practices for crafting your proposal, and use storytelling to share program needs, opportunities, and resources to support your request.
