Dr. Church is the Director of Strategy and Impact at XPRIZE Learning. This talk will address her work with the $15M Global Learning XPRIZE, an open source software competition that addresses the grand challenge of 250 million children around the world who cannot read, write, or do basic math. To aid that goal in her position at XPRIZE, Church helps innovators build gender equity into the infrastructure of their work as a way of promoting inclusion for social good.
