        Abstract
        Seventh Pan-Commonwealth Forum on Open Learning, Keynote Address, Plenary - Innovation & Technology, 5 December 2013, International Conference Centre, Abuja, Nigeria by Professor Tim Unwin, Secretary General, Commonwealth Telecommunications Organisation, UNESCO Chair, Information and Communication Technologies for Development // Despite limited digital connectivity, I just thought I would upload a short summary of my upcoming keynote at the Commonwealth of Learning’s Seventh Pan-Commonwealth Forum this afternoon to encourage productive debate! Its central argument is that we are not delivering as effectively as we could in using ICTs for education at all levels, because of very explicit interests that are serving to limit this effectiveness.
