Minister of Communications and Information Technology, Distinguished guests,
It is a great pleasure to address you today at the “International Summit for Digital Transformation and Cybersecurity." This conference serves as a crucial platform for advancing digital transformation, a vision we share wholeheartedly with the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology.
Digital transformation is at the core of the United Nations Development Programme's strategies as one of three key enablers in the 2022-2025 strategic plan. UNDP has developed a stand-alone digital strategy for 2022-2025, which aims to build inclusive, ethical, and sustainable digital societies by utilizing digital technology as an empowering force for people and the planet.
Over the last two years, UNDP has supported over 60 countries in their holistic, national-level digital transformation efforts and helped policymakers understand their readiness for artificial intelligence while developing national AI strategies. UNDP is steering global leadership on Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI). As an official knowledge partner during the G20 Indian presidency in 2023, we led advocacy efforts on DPI and are currently supporting more than 20 countries in its implementation.
UNDP is also recognized for its leadership in digital transformation. We were invited by the Government of Italy as a knowledge partner during its G7 Presidency [u1] in 2024. Together, we are co-designing an AI Hub for Sustainable Development with countries in Africa. This initiative is a testament to the collaborative efforts required to harness the full potential of AI and digital technologies for sustainable development.
Our longstanding partnership with the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology over the past 20 years highlights the power of collaboration and collective action. UNDP has been steadfast in supporting the Ministry in its mission to transform the nation into an inclusive digital society. Our Digital Transformation portfolio with the Ministry is the largest not only in the Country Office but also across the entire region.
Together, we are driving ICT[u2] innovation, developing human capital, supporting the creation of an inclusive society, and advancing the national AI agenda. Through our collaboration, we aim to equip beneficiaries with the necessary skills to navigate emerging technologies and promote digital literacy for future jobs. By leveraging UNDP platforms and channels for wider outreach, we can ensure that these opportunities reach all segments of society, leaving no one behind.
In our joint efforts, fostering innovation and inclusivity is paramount. By unlocking the full potential of digital transformation, we can create a more equitable and prosperous future for all citizens. This involves not only technological advancements but also ensuring that every individual has the skills and opportunities to benefit from these changes.
In conclusion, let us embrace the spirit of partnership and collaboration to drive digital transformation and enhance cybersecurity. This summit provides a valuable opportunity to spark impactful discussions on harnessing data for sustainable development. It also serves as a platform to forge new partnerships and collaborations aimed at bridging the digital divide and further empowering communities.
By working together, we can address the challenges and seize the opportunities presented by digital transformation. Let us use this conference to ignite meaningful dialogue, share insights, and create actionable plans that will drive progress in digital transformation and cybersecurity. Through collective action, we can ensure that digital advancements contribute to a sustainable, inclusive, and prosperous future for all.
Thank you.
