Digital policy and related processes are continuously changing as digital technologies emerge and become more integrated into people’s lives, in line with the digital ecosystem in Bangladesh. Much of the knowledge and skills on how to maximize benefits from using digital technologies, but also how to utilize them safely and securely, is with users in terms of the digital society, digital rights and governance, digital economy and infrastructure, and digital adoption’s policy and practice.
