Aspen is a place for leaders to lift their sights above the possessions which possess them. To confront their own nature as human beings, to regain control over their own humanity by becoming more self-aware, more self-correcting, and hence more self-fulfilling.

About

We fuel innovation by investing in not-for-profit organizations and NGOs that are working to advance social and economic equality in their local communities by accelerating digital inclusion. 

The Digital Equity Accelerator (“Accelerator”) is a project of Aspen Institute in collaboration with HP Inc. The Accelerator is administered by Aspen Digital as part of our Empowered Communities portfolio of work. All projects in the Empowered Communities portfolio focus on advancing a better connected world that prioritizes equity and justice for everyone and dismantles systemic barriers to full participation in our increasingly digital world.

In its first year, the effort successfully helped scale seven organizations in India, Morocco, and the United States, boosting their cumulative reach by 1.7 million people and counting.
