Indigenous Connectivity Summit 2023

Join us in Anchorage, Alaska
Indigenous communities are among the most underserved with internet access throughout North America. For seven years, a growing movement of connectivity champions has worked though the Indigenous Connectivity Summit (ICS) to change that.
Register now to attend ICS 2023 in Anchorage and join workshops, lightning talks and panel discussions about the broadband challenges facing our communities, and hear directly from people doing game-changing work to advance digital equity.
You’ll be among Indigenous community members, leaders, network operators, researchers and policymakers with a common goal: to connect Indigenous communities to fast, affordable, sustainable internet networks.
Hosted by the Indigenous Connectivity Institute, the community-led ICS has grown to be the primary convening for Indigenous leadership and allies working across the United States and Canada to build a digital future on their terms.
The Indigenous Connectivity Institute is incubated by Connect Humanity.

Youth Scholarships
While the ICS is free to attend, we’re always looking for ways to make it accessible for more people. Thanks to the Mastercard Foundation’s EleV program, we’re offering scholarships to support a number of Indigenous young people (18-35 years) living in Canada to attend the summit. These will cover travel costs, accommodation, and meals.
Applications for scholarships are now closed.
There are also a limited number of travel scholarships available for youth living in the United States.
If you have questions, contact us at ics@connecthumanity.fund.
