If we do not address these interconnected challenges, we risk leaving entire communities behind.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 300\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">AlYahya praised the Global Digital Compact for \u201clays out an ambitious roadmap for an inclusive, open, sustainable, fair, safe and secure digital future for all,\u201d emphasizing that \u201cIt is a bold vision, but the real challenge is translating these goals, principles, objectives, and commitments into action, especially as we strive to achieve the SDGs.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 300\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">AlYahya highlighted that \u201cat the Summit of the Future, the DCO proudly launched the Digital Economy Navigator (DEN), an innovative tool that provides detailed insights on digital economy performance across 50 countries. This initiative is just one of the many ways we are turning the principles of the Global Digital Compact into action.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 300\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">She explained that \u201cwhile DEN is a vital resource, it is only the beginning. In the spirit of networked multilateralism, we must foster collective efforts to the GDC\u2019s ambitious goals, objectives, and commitments. I call upon every country, organization, and individual to join forces in this critical endeavor.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 300\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Digital Economy Navigator (DEN) evaluates digital economy performance through three intersecting dimensions: Digital Enablers, Digital Business, and Digital Society. Within these dimensions, 10 pillars synthesize and summarize key aspects of countries\u2019 digital economy, and use of digital technology application from 102 indicators gathered from respected secondary data sources, in addition to proprietary survey data of more than 27,000 participants across the 50 countries.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 300\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In addition to the launch of the DEN, on the sidelines of UNGA, DCO signed an agreement with the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) to enhance digital cooperation and accelerate digital transformation across the world, to support efforts aimed at achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals by 2030.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 300\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It also signed a memorandum of understanding with the League of Arab States (LAS) to accelerate the inclusive and sustainable digital economy, enhance relations and exchange experiences and knowledge, and accelerate the process of digital transformation and economic development.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Deemah AlYahya, Secretary-General of the Digital Cooperation Organization (DCO), said that \u201cthe digital divide the world faces today is multifaceted, encompassing gaps in digital intelligence, computing capabilities, gender, and skills,\u201d in a speech at the Summit of the Future held during UNGA79 in New York.
