COURSE OVERVIEW
Although the world is more connected than ever before, not everyone currently benefits. This course focuses on both expanding mobile broadband coverage (especially in rural areas) and on accelerating mobile internet adoption, which is the biggest challenge we face in addressing the digital divide. Packed with the latest GSMA insights into the barriers to digital inclusion, the course also details concrete policy actions that can be used to address them.
OBJECTIVES
1. Gain a better understanding of the factors impacting the digital divide
2. Understand the policy levers that can help bridge the digital divide
3. Create an action plan to address the digital divide in your country
