What is Digital Inclusion?
Digital inclusion refers to the ability of individuals to access and effectively use digital technologies, including the internet, devices, and applications.

Key components of digital inclusion include:
- Access: The availability of affordable, reliable, and high-speed internet and digital devices for all individuals and communities.
- Digital Literacy: The knowledge and skills required to use digital tools and navigate online environments safely and effectively.
- Affordability: Ensuring that the costs associated with accessing and using digital technologies are not a barrier for low-income individuals and families.
- Support and Training: Providing opportunities for individuals to learn how to use digital tools, and offering technical support when needed.
- Inclusion in Decision-Making: Ensuring that diverse voices are heard in the development and implementation of digital policies, technologies, and services.
In the context of digital treasure hunts, this badge encourages you to reflect on how digital inclusion plays a key role in creating accessible and equitable experiences for all participants.
