“What is at stake is today’s technology ‘have-nots’ – especially the young – and whether they may find themselves marginalized for life because they lack the skills and tools to participate in our globalized, knowledge-based economy,” says Colin Powell, former Secretary of State and founder of America’s Promise. “Marketable skills increasingly mean digital skills.”
