Companies fail on equity and diversity because they often bring in an expert that does not represent diversity of the population, so they continue with a colonial approach (focusing on White women) that does not make true change. - @sw #techinclusion

We need to think more deeply about #intersectionality and helping the success of the most marginalised groups. - @sw #techinclusion

Truly innovative leaders are "continually earning the right to be leaders." - @sw #TechInclusion

Minorities are very interested in STEM. But too much focus is on consumers, not on being creators. The problem is the language and how it's sold, especially to Aboriginal children who aren't made aware that there are opportunities. - @waynedenning #TechInclusion

Valuing STEM teachers is important in engaging young children in STEM education and careers. - Hope Perkins, @unimelb Melbourne School of Engineering #Indigenous Engagement. #Techinclusion

Problem: lack of trust despite good intentions. What is going to be different, make meaningful change? Many schools have had bad experiences with "do gooders... eho swan in" and don't make positive change. Make tech learning & skills more relevant. - Hope Perkins #Techinclusion
