The Digital Equity Success Kit

The Digital Equity Success Kit (DESK) program leverages multi-stakeholder engagement and economies of scale to connect the under and unconnected, ensuring they have the devices they need to fully engage online, access to high-quality digital literacy curriculum and training, and community-responsive support systems, including a digital navigation corps, to establish an ecosystem wherein everyone regardless of age, gender, race, ethnicity, ability, or socioeconomic status has access to opportunities to achieve their fullest potential. 

Digital Equity Innovation As A Service

To determine where high speed internet services are currently unavailable, DEI works with governments to leverage innovative data collection technologies to gather precise, accurate, and up-to-date broadband and connectivity mapping data. DEI develops the necessary new systems, processes, and supporting materials. This process enables governments to create maps that display fixed broadband availability for individual locations and mobile broadband availability with greater accuracy and provides our DEI government partners with the tools needed to target equity efforts to support those communities in greatest need.

The DEI team works alongside our community partners to develop reference architectures and playbooks for deploying network infrastructure and ecosystem supports (security, privacy, sustainability, management, operations) across unserved and underserved urban, rural, and remote communities around the globe. This workstream provides cities with a platform for smart, virtual, and equitable digital expansion.
