Access, skills, and safe participation in the digital world for every young person.
The Digital Empowerment pillar opens doors to technology: from basic productivity tools and online safety to coding, content creation, and design thinking. Our goal is to help youth use technology confidently, ethically, and creatively.

After “Code Starters,” Sara prototyped a simple web app that helps her class schedule study sessions. She later designed its logo in the Media Lab and shared it with friends.
