This webinar follows the release of a joint special topics issue between the UN Major Group for Children and Youth (UN MGCY) and the Journal of Science Policy and Governance (JSPG), as well as the 23rd Session of the Commission on Science & Technology for Development, and will address how technology can be harnessed as a global public good to the service of people and planet, in ways that align with principles of equity and inclusion. ​
