标题： Building Bridges across Papua New Guinea's Digital Divide in Growing the ICT Industry

摘要： 巴布亚新几内亚（PNG）是一个新兴科技社会，有机会克服地理和社会边界，以参与全球市场。 然而，目前由硅谷的大型科技公司和其他北方国家的跨国公司主导的技术环境，往往忽视了像PNG这样的新兴经济体的需求。 随着算法偏见（在技术产品部署中）和数字鸿沟（如非负担得起的商业软件案例）等问题日益明显，这些因素正在影响PNG用户。 基于现有研究，开源软件（OSS）运动被视为一种在PNG数字化和信息通信技术（ICT）采用中实现公平竞争的方式。 本文档记录了第二届国际BRIDGES2023研讨会“通过全球工程软件弥合差距”的成果，旨在提出未来关于ICT教育、提升软件工程（SE）能力以及OSS采用的研究思路，以促进PNG更加公平的数字未来。 显示英文摘要

摘要： Papua New Guinea (PNG) is an emerging tech society with an opportunity to overcome geographic and social boundaries, in order to engage with the global market. However, the current tech landscape, dominated by Big Tech in Silicon Valley and other multinational companies in the Global North, tends to overlook the requirements of emerging economies such as PNG. This is becoming more obvious as issues such as algorithmic bias (in tech product deployments) and the digital divide (as in the case of non-affordable commercial software) are affecting PNG users. The Open Source Software (OSS) movement, based on extant research, is seen as a way to level the playing field in the digitalization and adoption of Information and Communications Technologies (ICTs) in PNG. This perspectives paper documents the outcome of the second International Workshop on BRIdging the Divides with Globally Engineered Software} (BRIDGES2023) in the hopes of proposing ideas for future research into ICT education, uplifting software engineering (SE) capability, and OSS adoption in promoting a more equitable digital future for PNG.
