Rodrigo Baggio, is one of the world's foremost champions of information technology and education for all. The Brazilian social entrepreneur has worked tirelessly to overcome what he calls "digital apartheid". 

Driven from the age of 12 by two passions - technology and helping disadvantaged young people in Rio's favelas - Baggio found a way to combine them in 1995 by founding CDI - Center for Digital Inclusion. The mission of CDI (http://www.cdi.org.br) is to utilize IT as a tool to promote social inclusion and bridge the digital divide.
