“The Transmission Files (Dixon’s robots)” di Matt Dixon è una serie di quattro silent book. Fra alienazione, solitudine e attese un parallelo che porta a noi stessi, ai nostri volti, ai nostri passi…

Un robot, occhi profondi e tenerezza disarmante, dorme rannicchiato in una scatola di cartone. Avvolge il suo corpo freddo con una coperta rossa. Sulla scatola c’è scritto “fragile”.

E fragili siamo noi, umani, circondati da robot che somigliano sempre di più a noi.

O siamo noi che somigliamo sempre di più a loro?

Cerca di connettersi, Robot.

Cerca contatto e calore.

Sorrisi e condivisione.

Ma, alla fine, il suo cavetto usb (che usa per ricaricarsi) non troverà alcun ingresso compatibile tra le tante prese sparpagliate su una parete.

E attenderà, guardando fuori dalla finestra, che accada qualcosa.

O che arrivi qualcuno.

As the world grows more digitally connected, having access to the internet and digital tools has become essential for engaging in civic life, working, receiving an education, and receiving healthcare. However, disparities in digital access persist, creating a “digital divide” that disproportionately affects marginalized communities. Here, we explore the importance of bridging the digital divide and ensuring access for all.

1. Equity in Education

Students must have access to online learning environments and digital resources in order to succeed in the current educational system. Yet, many students lack reliable internet access and devices at home, hindering their ability to participate in remote learning and complete assignments. Bridging the digital divide in education requires providing affordable broadband internet access, distributing devices to students in need, and offering digital literacy training to students, parents, and educators. By guaranteeing that all students have equal access to instructional technology, schools can create an environment where all students feel empowered to succeed academically.

2. Economic Opportunity

Digital skills are increasingly essential for accessing job opportunities and participating in the modern workforce. However, individuals without reliable internet access or proficiency in digital technologies face barriers to employment and economic advancement. In terms of economic opportunity, closing the digital divide entails extending broadband infrastructure to underserved areas, offering certification and training programs in digital skills, encouraging entrepreneurship, and creating opportunities for remote work. Giving people the skills and information they need to succeed in the digital economy will help us encourage economic empowerment and close the gap between income and employment.

3. Access to Healthcare

Particularly in underprivileged and rural areas, the digital divide substantially impacts access to healthcare services. Telemedicine and digital health platforms offer opportunities to expand access to healthcare services, especially for individuals with limited mobility or living in remote areas. However, disparities in internet access and digital literacy prevent many individuals from accessing telehealth services and online health resources. Investing in telecommunications infrastructure, encouraging digital health literacy, and making sure that healthcare services are inclusive and available to everyone, irrespective of digital proficiency or technology access, are all necessary to close the digital divide in healthcare.

4. Civic Engagement and Social Inclusion

Political involvement, social inclusion, and civic engagement all depend on having access to the internet and digital platforms. However, individuals with reliable internet access or digital skills may need help accessing information, participating in online discussions, and engaging with government services. Bridging the digital divide in civic engagement involves promoting digital inclusion initiatives, providing public access to digital resources through libraries and community centers, and ensuring that government websites and online services are accessible to individuals with disabilities and limited digital literacy. By fostering digital citizenship and inclusive digital spaces, we can promote democratic participation and social cohesion.

Promoting equity, opportunity, and inclusion in our increasingly digital society requires bridging the digital divide. By expanding access to broadband internet, providing digital skills training, and ensuring that digital resources and services are accessible to all individuals, we can empower marginalized communities, reduce disparities, and build a more equitable and inclusive future. Closing the digital divide requires collective action from governments, businesses, nonprofits, and communities to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to benefit from the opportunities afforded by digital technology.
