World Development Report 2016: Digital Dividends. Just published. http://www.worldbank.org/en/publication/wdr2016 Digital technologies have spread rapidly in much of the world. Digital dividends—that is, the broader development benefits from using these technologies—have lagged behind. In many instances, digital technologies have boosted growth, expanded opportunities, and improved service delivery. *Yet their aggregate impact has fallen short and is unevenly distributed. For digital technologies to benefit everyone everywhere requires closing the remaining digital divide, especially in internet access. * -- PhD Candidate Department of Sociology University of Cambridge www.openaccessphd.com @richarddent Tel: 07827 537537
