This article proves to me that we are moving in the right direction of providing equal opportunities to the less fortunate. This summit talked about how we can help improve information literacies around the world.

For generations the Inuits had traveled the ice based on trial and error knowledge gained by those brave enough to test the waters. This shows that more and more people are recognizing the need to change the definition of literacy.
