Measuring digital development: Facts and Figures 2024

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
ITU’s Measuring digital development: Facts and Figures 2024 offers a snapshot of the most important ICT indicators, including estimates for the current year.

This year’s edition shows that Internet use continues to grow, but universality remains elusive, especially in low-income regions. Furthermore, there is a lack of progress in bridging the urban-rural divide, except in the lowest income group.

ITU’s flagship Facts and Figures publication tracks global connectivity with estimates of key indicators, including those related to Internet use, infrastructure, affordability, Internet traffic, gender, and location.
