ICT Boosts Developing Countries' Growth and Social Welfare, Requires Investment.
Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) can help developing countries grow economically and socially. By investing in education and infrastructure, these countries can benefit from ICT and improve their position in the global economy. ICT can boost economic growth, improve healthcare, education, agriculture, mobile communications, and government services in regions like South America, Sub-Sahara Africa, and South/East Asia. Developing countries often have low GDP per capita, high unemployment, and rapid population growth due to factors like political corruption, civil unrest, and disease.
