The Brazilian National Telecommunications Agency (Anatel), UNESCO, and the Brazilian Ministry of the Environment (MRE) signed a technical cooperation agreement on 9 April 2024, during the “Inteligência Artificial e o Futuro da Conectividade: uma Visão Coletiva” event.
Anatel announced in a press release that this collaborative initiative holds profound implications for Brazil’s digital landscape and its pursuit of sustainable development objectives. Firstly, the agreement underscores a commitment to improving digital infrastructure and accessibility, particularly for underserved communities facing barriers to internet usage due to a lack of digital literacy and internet access.
