Vulnerable populations, including youth, are being left behind.
How do we close the digital divide so every young person can benefit from opportunities?
Stakeholders need to collaborate on four core elements that will help youth thrive in a digital world.
Solutions for the 21st century must be reimagined and we all have a role to play.
Youth leader Maryam Elgonia says: “Connecting young people to a digital future means so much. It means we have access to information and opportunities at our fingertips. It means dreams can become realities. It means that we create a future full of promise and prosperity. It means that we create a future where no one is left behind.”
