Inspiring Learning in a Hyperconnected World

"Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world." - Nelson Mandela

Nortel has a long standing commitment of investing in education excellence and focuses its global community relations efforts on the use of technology to inspire learning and enable opportunity in the digital age.

Within our increasingly hyper-connected world, digital inclusion has new meaning and importance beyond access. Building the human capacity to effectively use the new-found connectivity is a global societal challenge and the current focus of our signature Community Relations strategy called Nortel LearniT.

Nortel LearniT initiatives around the world help others access technology and connectivity, build tech literacy skills, promote science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) education, and more importantly, build the know-how within others to address their unique needs and challenges. By working closely with our employees, customers and community partners, Nortel LearniT initiatives are fueling and supporting innovative solutions that help make success in the digital age a reality for our youth, and learners of all ages everywhere.
