Technology and Society: Shared Responses to Common Public Policy Priorities
Technology can vastly improve social outcomes and solve a range of the most pressing policy challenges on the planet. But it can also do immense damage if unregulated and without appropriate rules and norms to guide how it is applied. This session considered the transformative potential of technology, as well as its capacity to preserve ancient cultures, traditions and languages.
Speakers in this session included: Dr Franziska Brantner, Parliamentary State Secretary in Germany's Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action, Danielle Cave, Director, Executive, Strategy and Research, Australian Strategic Policy Institute, On Lee, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Technology Officer, GDP Labs and Chief Technology Officer, GDP Venture, Dulciana Somare-Brash, Executive Director, Michael Somare Foundation and Development Specialist, DevCom Pacific PNG Ltd, and Dr Naoko Sugita, Advisor to the Director, Earth Observation Research Center, Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency.
