dc.description.abstractDigital technology also brings real risks. Millions still lack access to affordable data and devices or the skills to use them. Women and low-income groups face the steepest digital barriers. Many countries still rely on outdated, fragmented systems that isolate users, replicate costs, and fail to protect data. And with AI developing at breakneck speed, often more rapidly than society can adapt, the risks of misuse, exclusion, or harm are rising. This policy note sets out four priority actions to help realize the promise of digital technology for human development while managing the risks.en
