Digital technologies can help achieve 70% of targets under the UN SDGs by 2030, acting as a critical enabler of so many other development priorities, from education to health, to gender equality and beyond.
With 2.6 billion people still unconnected, glaring digital gaps hinder innovation across much of the world.
World Telecommunication and Information Society Day reminds the world of the progress yet to be made to ensure that everyone can benefit from digital technologies. #WTISD
