Stakeholder engagement: Aiming to build broad representation
Given the degree to which digital skills touch every aspect of work and life, many countries' goal is to ensure that a broad, representative group of stakeholders engage in the process of developing a digital skills strategy. This chapter outlines some of the most common stakeholders that should be engaged – but please note that this is not an exhaustive list. In particular, since digital divides tend to exacerbate other social divides, it is crucial that groups that are often excluded from policy-making processes have a voice. This chapter also identifies, a range of models that can engage stakeholders, a tool to facilitate the formation of a country's stakeholder group and guidance on governance and working methods for such groups.
