How can you design your state’s digital equity plan to leverage OER, support equity and capitalize on improved digital infrastructure? 

In this webinar, the #GoOpen National Network outlined its efforts to advocate for integrating OER into digital equity implementations. Funded by the federal bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, the Digital Equity Act of 2021 requires the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) to promote digital equity, support digital inclusion activities, and build state and local capacity to increase broadband adoption and use.
