In the ever-evolving educational technology landscape, the fight for diversity, equity, and inclusion (DE&I) isn't just a hashtag; it's the foundation for building a future where learning thrives for all. This panel brings together a dynamic group of innovators, educators, and advocates at the forefront of “edtequity.” Hear from individuals challenging the status quo, breaking down barriers, and championing solutions that empower marginalized communities, break accessibility limitations, and ensure technology amplifies, not diminishes, diverse learning experiences. Join us as we explore:

Breaking the echo chamber: How can we actively seek and amplify voices from underrepresented groups?
Beyond representation: Moving from diverse faces to equitable structures and inclusive practices.
Building bridges, not walls: Leveraging technology to dismantle barriers and create pathways to opportunity for all learners.
From awareness to action: Practical strategies for embedding DE&I principles into every stage of EdTech implementation.
