SDGs ALIGNMENT
"From Clicks to Progress: Youth Digital Pathways for Sustainable Development"
Digitalization is transforming our world, offering unprecedented opportunities to accelerate sustainable development. Digital technologies such as mobile devices, services, and artificial intelligence are instrumental in advancing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). With young people leading the adoption and development of new technologies, their role in digital innovation is essential for addressing global issues and achieving the SDGs.
Key Points:
• Young people are at the forefront of digital adoption and innovation.
• There is a need to enhance digital inclusion, particularly among young women and in low-income countries.
• Digital technologies contribute significantly to the SDGs and can reduce the cost of achieving these goals.
• Celebrating the digital contributions of youth can inspire further innovation and collaboration towards sustainable development.
