The pandemic revealed how essential access to high-speed Internet was and the unevenness of access to it. This places children in homes on the wrong side of the digital divide at a severe disadvantage as digital access is key to effective learning because of increased use of online learning management systems, multimedia resources, online research as well as for remote schooling during climate and other emergencies.

This chapter explains the scale of the problem and offers a set of recommendations to close the divide.
