Bridging the digital divide by 2030: Harnessing technology for a more inclusive future

Advancements in digital technologies have opened global markets, creating unprecedented opportunities and driving innovation worldwide. Digital transformation has become a powerful catalyst for human progress enabling breakthroughs in education, healthcare, climate action, and economic empowerment. Yet, 2.6 billion people remain offline, missing out on the life-changing benefits of universal, meaningful connectivity.
 
As the world races toward a more inclusive, sustainable, and connected future, it is urgent to empower everyone, everywhere to shape their own digital journey.
 
Partner2Connect (P2C), ITU’s multistakeholder Digital Coalition, is a global force for digital inclusion. By championing universal, meaningful connectivity and accelerating digital transformation, P2C serves as a high-level platform to mobilize and announce new resources, partnerships, and commitments from a global community of leaders united in putting digital technologies at the service of humanity.
