Technology is transforming our world - for better and worse. Now more than ever, it is imperative that those of us involved in the creation and application of technology play our part to help bend the arc of technology towards food. Tech Stewardship is a professional identity, orientation and practice. As tech stewards, we continuously discuss, refine and imagine new ways to shape technology for the benefit of all. During this session, you will have an opportunity to practice Tech Stewardship yourself through a round of structured reflection and sharing about the tech related tensions you are facing.
