Tech for good: What it means and how we can deliver on it
The sector encompassing health tech, education tech, cleantech, femtech and
enterprise environmental, social and governance (ESG) software is seeing increased
investments, reaching $79 billion globally in 2021. But at the Tech for Good Institute (TFGI),
we found that varying definitions across the tech for good ecosystem meant varying
expectations. Without a shared understanding of tech for good, it's no surprise that the jury's
still out on whether technology is delivering a net positive impact.
In February 2023, TFGI ran a flash poll on public perceptions of tech for good in
Southeast Asia. Of the 212 respondents from Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines,
Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam, only 46% strongly agreed or agreed that technology and
the digital economy have delivered their promise for the region. Almost as many (37%)
stayed neutral. [...]
Responsible digital economy companies examine their systems, processes, products
and services to identify and mitigate negative consequences in upstream development and
downstream impacts of products and services.
Digital technologies can be inherently values-driven, so upstream considerations
include developing systems with inclusion, security and data protection baked in, with
transparency to build trust. For example, developers can proactively ensure datasets that
train algorithms are unbiased or design systems for frictionless data sharing or systematic
data protection.
Downstream considerations include maintaining consumer choice and protecting
livelihoods and users' health and well-being. With rapidly evolving digital technologies,
operating responsibly is a moving goalpost. As regulators pay attention to players in the
digital economy, the business case for mitigating negative impacts can be as straightforward
as maintaining licences.
In our poll, only 14% of respondents thought responsibility alone constituted tech for
good, suggesting sustainability is necessary but more is needed.

The Secret Agent: 'truly special' Brazilian thriller barely puts 'a foot wrong'
Wagner Moura is 'soulful and seductive' in starring role as an academic on the run
Set during Brazil's military dictatorship in the
1970s, this political thriller is "populated by so many
characters", you may despair of keeping track of who
is who, said Deborah Ross in The Spectator. But "do
hang on in there", as it repays the effort. Justly
nominated for four Oscars, this is a "truly special" (if
rather sprawling) film.
Wagner Moura (known for playing Pablo
Escobar in the Netflix hit "Narcos") stars as Marcelo, a widowed academic
who has gone on the run from a pair of hitmen. Quite why they are targeting him isn't initially clear but there's a lot else to
think about in the meantime: there is a "hitman hired by the hitmen"; there's a corrupt police
chief; there's a "head-scratcher" of a sequence in which a human leg "comes to life and kicks
gay people". It is, in sum, a heady mix, but it barely puts "a foot wrong", and the performances
are superb.
"If you're expecting a Brazilian 'Bourne', forget it," said Tom Shone in The Sunday
Times. "For a film about a man shadowed by two assassins, 'The Secret Agent' has a
daringly languid pace". Gradually, "a disquieting paranoia begins to creep into everything"
until "even the sunlight seems off".

Brazil's last asbestos miners are switching to rare earth minerals. Can they offer a
brighter future?
Minaçu, a small city in inland Brazil and home to the only asbestos mine in the
Americas, is set to become the first operation outside Asia to produce four rare earths on a
commercial scale. [...]
Until now, China has dominated the separation of rare earths, and accounts for 90%
of the manufacture of rare-earth magnets, or super magnets, which are made with these
elements and used in electric cars, wind turbines and military equipment such as jets.
But in April, China restricted its exports of the minerals in response to US tariffs,
causing uncertainty over global supply. Brazil's incipient production could hardly be better
timed. To stimulate the sector, the Brazilian government has issued a call for tenders with
an investment forecast of 5bn reals (£670m) in projects related to the supply of strategic
minerals, such as rare earths. [...]
Rare earths are a group of 17 elements with high magnetism and the ability to absorb
light, features that make them essential for the transition to clean energy. Some of the most
coveted are neodymium, praseodymium, dysprosium, and terbium - used in the
manufacture of electric motors and wind turbines, two industries that fuel the demand for
rare earths, which have doubled globally between 2015 and 2023. [...]
For Minaçu, rare earths are the promise of a fresh start. In 2017, Sama, part of the
Brazilian company Eternit, was compelled to halt the asbestos mining that for 50 years had
shaped the town. The temporary permit granted for export extraction two years later
permitted it to keep operating, but with diminished capacity.
