Amy Sample Ward

Changing the way we use, develop, and fund technology for social change is possible, and it starts with you. The Tech That Comes Next: How Changemakers, Philanthropists, and Technologists Can Build an Equitable World outlines a vision of a more equitable and just world along with practical steps to creating it, appropriately leveraging technology along the way.

In the book, you'll find:

  • Strategies for changing culture and investments inside social impact organizations
  • Ways to change technology development so it incorporates more of society
  • Examples of data, security, and privacy laws and policies that need to change to protect vulnerable populations and advance positive change

Ideal for nonprofit leaders, social activists, policymakers, technologists, entrepreneurs, founders, managers, and other business leaders, The Tech That Comes Next belongs in the libraries of anyone who envisions a world in which technology helps advance, rather than hinders, positive social change.
