font-family: verdana, geneva;">Help IEEE contribute to worldwide digital inclusion by submitting a novel, early-stage project (proof-of-concept) or concept that offers unique ways to increase Internet access and usage for the 2.9 billion unconnected people around the world. The global 2024 IEEE Connecting the Unconnected Challenge is now open for submissions of unique solutions to bridge the digital divide. Deadline is 5 June 2024.</span></p><p style="margin-top: 14px; margin-bottom: 14px; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: 14px; font-family: verdana, geneva;">Internet access is critical to education, industry, and healthy living. Unconnected populations lack access to buy and sell goods and services online. Unconnected students lack access to the flourishing remote education market. The IEEE Connecting the Unconnected Challenge seeks to further connectivity by calling for early-stage projects and concepts that pursue unique ways to increase broadband access and usage for unconnected or under-connected populations/geographies.</span></p><p style="margin-top: 14px; margin-bottom: 14px; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: 14px; font-family: verdana, geneva;">Start-ups, grassroots organizations, universities, and others working toward digital inclusion in original ways are encouraged to participate.

This award will go to the Proof-of-Concept or Concept track contestant in any category (TA, BM, or CE) whose project or solution makes a significant impact or effort in closing the gender digital divide. Applicants will have an opportunity during Phases 2 and 3 of the competition to demonstrate how they have focused on gender inclusion within various KPIs, and generally.
