Online University
The DPoA proposes the creation of an online university dedicated to providing graduate and post-graduate studies in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) in LDCs and recently graduated countries. Online learning has the potential to democratize access to education around the world and keep education systems running even during global crises. Thus, the online university will utilize the potential of digitalization to advance quality education in the LDCs, bridging global educational gaps and overcoming some of the challenges to provide quality education to LDCs and beyond. The goal of the university is to achieve a 50/50 gender balance at all levels while guaranteeing special access for the poorest people and those in vulnerable situations.
