Technology impacts all of us everyday in ways we sometimes don’t yet recognize. Ensuring that the technology we rely on is built with equity, inclusion, and respect is critical to building a better world for future generations.
Powered by Communitech and the Rideau Hall Foundation, the Tech For Good movement began in 2018 with the signing of the Tech For Good declaration. It’s a document relevant for all organizations that develop, implement and make use of technology. It is a living declaration built to create an ongoing dialogue between all Canadians about the meaning of Tech for Good, a set of guiding principles that all aspiring organizations can follow to create and use technology for the good of humanity and of the planet that sustains us.
Today, those words are guiding governments, businesses, and organizations across Canada to think deeply about how we build and use technology.
