Last Chance to Submit a Nomination for Digital Equity Champions

January 4, 2022 is the deadline to nominate one or more people for the Charles Benton Digital Equity Champion Award and the Emerging Leader Award. Named for Charles Benton, the founder of the Benton Institute for Broadband & Society, the awards will be presented at Net Inclusion 2022 next month in Portland, Oregon. The National Digital Inclusion Alliance created the awards to recognize leadership and dedication in advancing digital equity: from promoting the ideal of accessible and affordable communications technology for all Americans to crafting programs and policies that make it a reality. The Digital Equity Champion Award will recognize an outstanding individual who has made a difference in the field of digital equity. The Emerging Leader Award will acknowledge an up-and-coming digital inclusion practitioner. See here for more information.
