Digital Divide

Digital divide is the gap between individuals who have access to technology and people who dont. These gaps are based on socioeconomic, geographic, and demographic factors. Digital divide is a problem amongst all of us as some people throughout the world dont have access to technology like we do on our desks. This is something we need to fix and avoid as equality is necessary when it comes to technology.


The digital divide can affect both groups and individuals. It affects these individuals by the raise of issues and equity, access, and influence both globally and locally. It lacks equity as some people dont have access to all kinds of technology. These problems are affected by the actions of certain individuals, organizations, and governments. Governments, organizations, etc., prevent the digital divide from stopping.


How do we stop the digital divide? Well, we can first provide internet access to everyone globally so we can provide equity amongst all of us. From this, everyone will have equal access to technology and can solve problems for all of us, ending the digital divide.
