| Popis: | The United Nations Agenda for Sustainable Development was unanimously adopted by all its 193 heads of member states or their representatives. "No-one should be left behind" is the ethical imperative of this development agenda. The agenda consists of seventeen Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) with 169 targets. Unfortunately not even one of the (SDGs) is dedicated to ICT or Digitalization. Prima facie, the potential impact of ICT and digitalization is highly underestimated in the text of the 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda. This paper is aiming at pointing out the indispensable role of ICT for reaching the SDGs by 2030. |
