Dear members,
This is a message from your friend in developing country Uganda. i have done survey of the digital divide in my country and what i see is alarming to say the least. This divide is surely widening. We need to do something about it so as to stop this trend and may be reverse it.
The digital divide as defined by wikipedia
The digital divide refers to the gap between people with effective access to digital and information technology and those with very limited or no access at all. It includes the imbalance both in physical access to technology and the resources and skills needed to effectively participate as a digital citizen. Knowledge divide reflects the access of various social groupings to information and knowledge, typically gender, income, race, and by location.[1] The term global digital divide refers to differences in access between countries.
Any ideas as to the best possible solution will be highly appreciated.
Thank you
