Thank you for joining the debate

As digitalisation is systematically and rapidly becoming an important part of our economies and societies, the global demand for know-how, skills and experiences related to the topic is increasing.

D4D Access is a knowledge platform that centralises, promotes, and disseminates African and European good practices and lessons on Digital for Development (D4D). Covering a wide range of topics, from e-governance to digital entrepreneurship, D4D Access contains many useful resources to support digital stakeholders in Africa and Europe – public institutions, donors, academia, companies, and civil society organisations – to advance an inclusive and sustainable digital transformation.

The event featured :

  • An exchange of views on the catalyst role that knowledge sharing plays in advancing inclusive and sustainable digital transformation.
  • The presentation of D4D Access, the main features of the platform, the available knowledge products and how stakeholders can contribute to it.

A special thanks to our speakers who fostered a very interesting debate and Q&A.
