Technology, AI & social impact

Helping people benefit from technological change

Mission Pointers helps people, communities and organisations develop the digital and AI skills, tools and confidence they need to participate fully in a changing society.

Why this matters

Technology is moving quickly. Opportunity needs to move with it.

AI is changing how people work, learn, communicate and find information. Benefiting from that change depends on access, confidence, practical skills and the ability to judge what is safe and reliable.

What we do

Three ways we put technology to work for social impact

01
