During her participation, Monique shared insights into the early requirements for building, operating, and deploying sustainable next-generation networks. She highlighted the unique opportunity to design technologies that will form the foundation of our digital society. Monique emphasised the importance of ensuring that 6G networks are sustainable by design, offering societal and environmental benefits beyond economic and technological indicators. Additionally, she stressed the significance of securing European Union technological sovereignty and leadership in the field.
To date, Digital for Planet collaborates with researchers, innovators, and representatives from organisations and civil societies who are interested in promoting zero pollution communication networks.

In her presentation, Monique underlined the necessity of establishing a consistent methodological framework to assess not only the direct impacts of 6G technologies but also their indirect effects on the environment and society. In line with the work carried out by the Smart Network and Services (6G SNS) initiative, she explained the potential of identifying common Key Value Indicators (KVIs) to emphasise the environmental and societal value of 6G and facilitate consensus and acceptance. 

Monique concluded her intervention by stating, “There must be an ethical and value-based approach from the beginning, where policy and regulation work closely with technology development to ensure a common approach to sustainable development. This approach is crucial to prevent mistrust and misinformation regarding the potential of technology to benefit individuals and society. Early engagement of diverse stakeholders beyond ICT players is of utmost importance.”
