Abstract
The impacts of digital transformation on society, and particularly on people’s lives, are increasing the debate between policy-makers, researchers, the industry and thinkers in general.
We must consider the type of world that we want the next generation to live in. We must work together so that the digital space that they inherit is safe, fair and inclusive.
António Guterres, UN Secretary-General
