Closing Divide

Information and communications technology (ICT) can help close the digital divide by providing digital literacy and access to information through telecommunications to people who lack these resources, enabling them to utilize new technologies for education, economic growth, and equality. 5G is an emerging technology that has the potential to close the digital divide through installing small cell towers that allow signals to travel farther, increasing internet speeds in rural and low-income areas and resolving issues faced by businesses due to currently slow internet connections.
