Krista Pawley - ”Unlocking Potential: The Power of Questions and Inclusion in the Digital Age”

Krista Pawley joins us to discuss how digital platforms can remove barriers and create greater access to opportunities for students.  Krista Pawley is a tri-sector leader who connects people and organizations across 56+ countries to catalyze sustainable, inclusive impact. She co-founded Wavemakers, the first national Work-Integrated Learning program using Virtual Reality, and founded Imperative Impact. Pawley shares her thoughts on how digital platforms like Wavemakers can equip students with vital skills for a rapidly changing job market by removing barriers to meaningful work experiences.  

Highlights from our conversation include:

1. Through tools like virtual reality and partnerships with equity-deserving communities, Wavemakers creates inclusive and welcoming environments, ensuring that students can bring their whole selves into their experiences.
2. By designing digital tools with a focus on belonging and inclusion, Wavemakers harnesses technology to create opportunities that might otherwise be out of reach, removing geographical and financial barriers.
