This risk that the digital divide will widen between LDCs and other countries, including other developing countries, is consistent with evidence from the ICT Development Index (which includes some of the same metrics) in Chapter 2. Affordability will be a critical factor in overcoming this divide, and detailed attention should be paid to the ICT Price Basket and the Agenda's three affordability targets. There is growing awareness of the gender digital divide, but its roots in structural inequalities, particularly concerned with income and educational attainment, mean that it is most likely to be addressed through measures that address those wider societal problems.
