๐ฅ What's the Big Deal:
In today's digital world, access to the
internet is fundamental for economic, educational, and social progress. ๐
Yet, despite its prevalence, there are still regions, including parts of the
Pacific, where significant segments of the population remain offline. ๐Using
data from the Pew Research Center, this graphic provides insights into internet
adoption trends in the Pacific, shedding light on who is digitally connected
and who is not. ๐ตAge remains a significant factor, with older
generations less likely to be online compared to younger ones. Income levels
also play a role, impacting access to the digital world. ๐Education
emerges as a key driver of internet adoption. Those with higher education
levels are more likely to be connected, highlighting the importance of digital
literacy and education programs. Interestingly, gender and race do not show
strong correlations with non-adoption. ๐Join the effort to create a
digitally inclusive Pacific, where every island nation and its people are
connected and thriving in the digital era.
