- Aiming to pick up the pace on digital sustainability, ITU and FCDO joined forces to co-design a far-reaching digital inclusion project.
- The project focuses on five FCDO-designated DAP countries: Brazil, Indonesia, Kenya, Nigeria and South Africa. Major gaps remain in all five countries in terms of affordability and access to connectivity. ITU and the FCDO aim to complement each other’s activities, programmes and goals in relation to school and community connectivity and digital skills development.
- The joint project aims to leverage ITU’s technical expertise and extensive stakeholder and partner network through initiatives like Giga and Decent Jobs for Youth (Boosting decent jobs and enhancing skills for youth in Africa’s digital economy).
