5 OTT 2022 · Since I was very young, probably six, seven years old, I was fascinated with the night skies. I would look at these beautiful, shiny objects in the darkness of the night sky and wonder what they are, why they're bright, you know, how I can go get closer to them. I wanted to go to space to touch them, to understand them. And this question, as I grew a little bit older, the question of, you know, why are we here? What am I doing here? What is this, how this world came to be and the role of humanity and the place we are in time in the grand scheme of things. So these questions are, and my curiosity to find the answers to these questions, what drew me to math science and got me set up on my path to actually being where I am an engineer, a business woman, and an astronaut."

That is how we get our future technology right.” Sinead Bovell, Founder, WAYE and Youth Tech Leader

15 LUG 2021 · Ageing is becoming a megatrend. Around the world birth rates are declining, while people are living longer, healthier lives. For the first time in human history, people over the age of 60 outnumber those under the age of five. A population predicted to reach 2 billion by the year 2050.
To help us prepare for this new reality, the World Health Organization and the United Nations have launched the Decade of Healthy Ageing. From 2021 to 2030, this decade will contain milestones related to the Sustainable Development Goals.
In this episode we are focusing on how technology can have a major part to play in ensuring that this population does not go underserved, but that will only happen if both technology creators and policy makers are aware of and act on this dramatic shift in the global demographic.
Featuring plenty of great content including extracts from speakers at major ITU events this year such as WSIS FORUM 2021 and facts and figures from ITU's brand new report: "Ageing in a digital world - from vulnerable to valuable".

31 MAG 2021 · In this episode we are focusing on ICT accessibility - specifically for persons with disabilities. People who identify as living with disability represent 15% of the world’s population, which is currently around 1 billion people. Within this population there exists a very wide array of disabilities encompassing physical mobility, autism and speech delays, persons who are deaf and hard of hearing, and persons with visual disability . Up to 70% of disabilities are invisible but they can still present a barrier to access and use the growing range of information technologies available.
This episode explores innovations in the accessibility space from established companies like Google and Microsoft to the new softwares and entrepreneurial ventures developed by people living with disability who experienced and realised a need that was not being met, and did something about it.
