Digital Divide and Digital Literacy
a GMIS initiative
How can people in remote areas access and use reliable and affordable internet connectivity?
The Mohammed bin Rashid Initiative for Global Prosperity seeks new tools to deploy these existing technologies to remote populations in a sustainable and affordable way. To do so, the initiative welcomes manufactured products and solutions from innovators and makers around the world that:
- Propose innovative methods to bolster and scale the use of existing technologies to accelerate the distribution of connection globally
- Create affordable opportunities for underserved communities to access digital technologies through ready-to-deploy products and strategies
- Promote equitable use of digital services and technology, empowering marginalised communities to overcome barriers to digital literacy, education, and economic opportunities
