Techcess Granted is more than a blog. It recognizes that access to technology should be granted to everyone. It is important for all of us to imagine, design, and use technology for social good. Techcess Granted’s mission is to inspire underrepresented minorities and women to engage with emerging technologies that have the potential to ameliorate underserved communities’ existing problems.
While pursuing a Masters of Science in Public Interest Technology, my focus of study is in the effects of emerging smart city technologies on low-income areas. It is up to all of us to demand the technology industry recognize that involving different views enables organizations to flourish and public engagement is a necessity.
