The Toolkit features seven policy dimensions that cut across policy areas to help ensure a whole-of-economy and society approach to realizing the promises of digital transformation for all.
These seven policy dimensions bring together interrelated areas to ensure a holistic approach that balances the opportunities and risks of digital transformation:
TRUST
Trust in digital environments is essential; without it, an important source of economic and social progress will be left unexploited.
ACCESS
Access to communications infrastructures, services and data underpin digital transformation and become more critical as more people and devices go online.
USE
The power and potential of digital technologies and data for people, firms and governments depend on their effective use.
INNOVATION
Innovation pushes out the frontier of what is possible in the digital age, driving job creation, productivity, and sustainable growth.
JOBS
As labour markets evolve, we must ensure that digital transformation leads to more and better jobs and to facilitate just transitions from one job to the next.
SOCIETY
Digital technologies affect society in complex and interrelated ways, and all stakeholders must work together to balance benefits and risks.
MARKET OPENNESS
Digital technologies change the way firms compete, trade and invest; market openness creates an enabling environment for digital transformation to flourish.
