Report explores how digital technologies are impacting
growth, jobs and public services. The internet and other
digital technologies profoundly affect the lives of billions
of people. The Report examines how they can be a force for
development, especially for the poor in developing
countries. The report explores the impact of digital
technologies on economic growth, on social and economic
opportunity, and on the efficiency of public service
delivery. It analyzes the factors that have enabled or
hindered businesses, people, and governments to benefit from
these technologies. The report also identifies the policy
reforms in the information and communication technology
(ICT) sector, complementary reforms, and reforms in the
development community required to maximize the impact of
digital technologies on growth and development. |
