The WSIS+10 document recognises access to the Internet as a development indicator and enabler in itself. Among and within countries, as well as across gender, income, and geographic lines, there are disparities between access to the Internet, education, and information. Understanding how and for what purposes different communities use or want to use the Internet - along with what gaps there are in terms of access, skills and literacy - will aid us in creating programmes that realise opportunities for reducing structural inequalities, promoting peace, and eliminating poverty. Such transformative interventions are best achieved through inclusive partnerships between governments, the private sector, and civil society built upon shared principles and values and a common vision at the global, regional, national, and local levels.
