Digital transformation is shaping individuals, businesses, and governments worldwide by deploying technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT).
These technologies have significant potential to enhance productivity, drive scientific discovery, support climate change mitigation, and improve public service delivery, along with enabling new business models, remote work, education, and healthcare.
However, countries face challenges including privacy, security, online safety, digital inequality, information integrity, social cohesion, and human rights protection in the digital age.
Addressing these issues requires a forward-looking, comprehensive government approach that integrates digital policies across all sectors.
The OECD's Going Digital Integrated Policy Framework helps countries create coordinated and holistic digital policies covering areas such as access, use, innovation, jobs, society, trust, and market openness. This framework is supported by the Going Digital Toolkit, which offers interactive cross-country comparisons to monitor digital development and guide policy responses.
