AI for Digital Inclusion


Description

AI for Digital Inclusion (AIDI) is an innovative digital platform designed to measure, analyze, and reduce the digital divide using artificial intelligence and real-time data. The project aims to provide governments, organizations, and communities with accurate insights about access to connectivity, digital services, and digital skills.
Through a mobile and web application, users can perform connectivity tests, evaluate the accessibility of digital services, and assess their level of digital literacy. The collected data is anonymized and analyzed using AI to generate a dynamic map of digital inclusion. This map identifies underserved areas, highlights connectivity gaps, and provides evidence-based insights to support better digital policies and investments.
The platform helps decision-makers understand where digital infrastructure and training programs are most needed, enabling more efficient allocation of resources. By empowering citizens to contribute data about their digital access, AIDI promotes participatory digital development and transparency.
The expected impact includes improved digital connectivity planning, stronger digital inclusion strategies, and better access to online services for marginalized communities. Ultimately, AIDI supports equitable participation in the digital economy and contributes to sustainable and inclusive digital transformation.

WSIS values promotion

The AI for Digital Inclusion (AIDI) project promotes the core values of the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS) by fostering equitable access to information and communication technologies and supporting inclusive digital development. The project contributes to reducing the digital divide by identifying underserved communities and highlighting gaps in connectivity, digital skills, and access to online services. By enabling citizens to participate directly through connectivity tests and digital access assessments, the platform encourages community engagement and promotes a people-centered information society. The data collected helps policymakers and stakeholders make informed decisions to improve digital infrastructure, expand digital services, and design targeted digital literacy programs. In addition, the project supports transparency and evidence-based policy development by providing reliable, real-time insights into digital inclusion challenges. This contributes to strengthening collaboration between public institutions, private sector actors, and civil society organizations working toward digital transformation. Ultimately, AIDI advances WSIS principles by promoting universal access to ICTs, empowering communities through digital participation, and supporting sustainable social and economic development in the digital age.
