Bridging the digital skills divide
Tuesday, 17 September 2024 : 14:00 – 15:15
One of the main barriers to Internet use and hence closing the digital divide is the lack of knowledge and skills of people to effectively use digital technologies, and the benefits they can bring.
The session will look at those who are still not using digital technologies and will explore the skills needs that will help bridge the digital divide. It will explore issues such as the Internet usage gap and specific groups that need particular attention, including the elderly, persons with disabilities, farmers, or women in rural and remote communities. It will also highlight the intergenerational skills gap and present examples of successful digital skills initiatives that contribute to closing the usage gap. The session will identify concrete actions, solutions and tools that can help achieve the SDGs through inclusive digital capacity and skills development.
