🌏 UNITAR CIFAL Jeju hosted the virtual workshop, "Inclusive Digital Governance for the Asia-Pacific: Bridging the Divide, Shaping the Future," from July 3rd to 4th, 2025. Guided by the UN Sustainable Development Goals' principle of "Leaving No One Behind," the workshop aimed to strengthen the digital capabilities of all citizens, including vulnerable groups, to foster an inclusive society.

🔎 Throughout the workshop, participants explored the multi-dimensional nature of the digital divide, understanding it not just as a gap in access, but also in usage and meaningful participation. The sessions featured expert-led discussions and case studies on key topics, including:

Digital inclusion for older adults in South Korea.

Improving digital access for women and marginalized groups.

Empowering MSMEs through the 'Go Digital ASEAN' program.

South Korea’s ‘Digital Platform Government’ as a model for innovation.

The critical role of physical infrastructure, like post offices, in providing multi-channel support.

The workshop provided a valuable opportunity to discuss and share concrete strategies for building a future where everyone can thrive in the digital age.

🌏 UNITAR 제주국제연수센터는 2025년 7월 3일부터 4일까지 ‘아시아-태평양 지역의 포용적 디지털 거버넌스: 격차를 넘어 미래를 열다’를 주제로 비대면 워크숍을 개최하였습니다. 유엔 지속가능발전목표(UN SDGs)의 ‘누구도 소외되지 않는(Leaving No One Behind)’ 원칙에 따라, 이번 워크숍은 취약계층을 포함한 모든 시민의 디지털 역량을 강화하여 포용적인 사회를 구축하는 것을 목표로 하였습니다.

🔎 워크숍 기간 동안 참가자들은 디지털 격차를 단순한 기술 접근성의 문제를 넘어, 활용 능력과 실질적인 사회 참여까지 아우르는 다차원적 과제로 이해하는 시간을 가졌습니다. 전문가들의 강의와 사례발표를 통해 다음과 같은 핵심 주제를 논의했습니다.

한국의 고령층을 위한 디지털 포용 노력

여성 및 소외 계층의 디지털 접근성 향상 방안

'고 디지털 아세안' 프로그램을 통한 소상공인 역량 강화

한국의 '디지털 플랫폼 정부' 혁신 모델

다채널 지원을 위한 우체국 등 물리적 인프라의 중요성

이번 워크숍은 모든 사람이 디지털 시대의 혜택을 누릴 수 있는 미래를 만들기 위한 구체적인 전략을 논의하고 공유하는 의미 있는 기회가 되었습니다.
