Closing the digital divide
Mobile connectivity has transformed into a vital aspect of our daily lives. Being connected in today’s world is essential to remaining up to date on important news, checking in on friends and family, performing most business transactions, booking medical appointments, and many other cornerstones of daily life. Despite this, huge gaps in digital accessibility still exist across Egypt today. A significant proportion of the population does not yet have access to mobile, internet, and digital financial services. Several factors contribute to this ongoing divide. Some remote rural areas suffer from a lack of coverage, limiting access to connectivity for their inhabitants. Additionally, gender gaps in digital connectivity remain prevalent in many areas.
