This report came from an IMLS funded project including the National Digital Inclusion Alliance, Urban Library Council, and the Salt Lake City Public Library. It is a toolkit for the Digital Navigators program at this library, but is useful in other libraries and other contexts
Digital equity is an intersectional and complex goal that requires multisector,
collaborative approaches. With participation from a range of trusted
local organizations, the Bronx Digital Equity Coalition (BxDEC) has an
opportunity to create a healthy, collaborative digital equity ecosystem in the
Bronx for the long term. This report lifts up learnings and recommendations
from Coalition membership as the group builds its strategy for sustainability
and impact.
From April-June 2021, Community Tech NY (CTNY) and the National Digital
Inclusion Alliance (NDIA) held a series of listening sessions with members
of the Bronx Digital Equity Coalition to support its development toward its
shared vision.
