Set up by the President of IFIP in 2022, the work of the IFIP Task Force takes the work of the IFIP TC3 Zanzibar Declaration further, seeking to gain an international perspective to support the UN, UNESCO, affiliated organisations, national societies, regional and local organisations in moving forward a focus on ‘Sustaining relevant digital inclusive education for young people (5-18 years of age)’.

The IFIP Task Force reported its interim findings initially at the WSIS 2023 Forum held in Geneva, Switzerland in March 2023, and then at the IFIP General Assembly (GA) Meeting in Bratislava, Slovakia in September 2023. These interim findings identified five key areas of concern that the IFIP Task Force believe warrant specific and particular attention: aspiration; diversity, inclusion, the digital divide and the under-represented; computational thinking and its links to problem-solving; developing teacher practices; and short- and long-term plans and actions.
