This week's Change Seminar Speaker will be Teddy Woodhouse <https://a4ai.org/profile/teddy-woodhouse/>. In his presentation, Teddy will pose the question: can technological innovation ever be just? Drawing from his years of experience in the ICT for development (ICT4D) space, Teddy reflects on some of the recent work of the Alliance for Affordable Internet <https://a4ai.org>, the moral arc of internet access (and the lack thereof), and the importance of thinking about the social implications to the technologies we create and use. *Seminar Details* *Location*: Tuesdays from 12-1pm in 271 CSE2 (The Bill and Melinda Gates Center) *Zoom:* https://washington.zoom.us/j/95324763742 *Present Bio* Teddy (he/him) is the Senior Research Manager for the Alliance for Affordable Internet.
