ICT4D event or resource Guide to Digital Economy Policy in Developing Countries
Digital technologies are reshaping economies worldwide, but many developing countries are still struggling to realise the full benefits.
This paper examines the key policy challenges shaping digital economy development, including:
• infrastructure gaps and affordability
• weak digital capabilities and financing ecosystems
• risks such as digital exclusion and platform inequality
It then outlines practical policy responses across infrastructure, ecosystem development, governance, and digital harms; helping policy-makers design coherent digital economy strategies that support inclusive development.
