DESCRIPTION:As digital technologies increasingly mediate human life and sha
 pe societal priorities\, ethical frameworks must evolve beyond compliance 
 toward inclusion\, trust\, and long-term sustainability. This talk introdu
 ces the DIITA framework — Dignity\, Identity\, Inclusion\, Trust\, and A
 gency — as an emerging IEEE initiative guiding responsible technology go
 vernance. It explores how these values can translate into measurable desig
 n\, deployment\, and policy practices across AI\, data systems\, and digit
 al infrastructures.\n\nDrawing from recent work on Technology Governance f
 or a Living Planet\, the talk expands DIITA from a human-centered ethics m
 odel to a planetary inclusion framework\, recognizing that technology’s 
 social impact is inseparable from its ecological footprint. It highlights 
 real-world examples\, from digital inclusion initiatives and ethical AI go
 vernance to green innovation\, demonstrating how DIITA can help achieve St
 rong Sustainability by Design (IEEE Planet Positive 2030).\n\nThrough this
  perspective\, the session invites educators\, researchers\, and technolog
 ists to view ethical technology not merely as a regulatory duty\, but as a
  creative and systemic responsibility — one that safeguards human dignit
 y\, fosters trust\, and sustains the living systems that enable our digita
 l future.\n\nCo-sponsored by: IEEE Pittsburgh Section SSIT Chapter\n\nSpea
 ker(s): Narayana\, \n\nAgenda: \nPresentation: 9 am (eastern time zone).\n
