Driving Broadband Adoption

This framework aims to drive broadband adoption and digital inclusion by addressing equity in technology access, literacy, and content relevance. Key components include the deployment of infrastructure, community programs, and support networks tailored to vulnerable populations. Addressing barriers such as awareness, training, and costs is essential for making technology accessible. Additionally, fostering youth engagement through skills training and collaborative leadership will enhance community assets and increase funding capacity for digital initiatives, ultimately promoting a more inclusive digital landscape.
