Development Is Digital
Development is Digital: Harnessing Technology's Potential for a Better World
A doubling in internet usage in low-and-middle-income countries over the last decade, coupled with breakthroughs in artificial intelligence, have reinforced hopes that technology can improve our world. New innovations are bringing life-changing health services, knowledge, and economic opportunity to even the most remote and marginalized communities.
