Digital Inclusion for All

 

Shaping our Digital Future

 

Digital technologies – the internet, mobile phones, and all the other tools to collect, store, analyze, and share information digitally – have spread rapidly in much of the world. Many of us depend on them to work, to educate the young, and reach out to our friends and family. These technologies have enabled digital public services, digital payments, online learning, telehealth, online shopping and more. However, about half the world's people access and use the Internet, the other half do not. Millions of people cannot work or go to school remotely or access technology and its benefits. Many of the unconnected live in least developed countries, landlocked developing countries and small island developing states, and within countries in rural and remote areas or urban impoverished areas.

 

Digital divide still persists between more and less connected countries, communities, and people. Enabling all the world´s people to access and use digital technologies (the Internet including mobile technologies) – and closing digital divides – remains a challenge that needs to be addressed if the world community is to achieve the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030.

Comentário do professor

Persists significa que algo continua a existir ou a acontecer, frequentemente apesar de dificuldades ou tentativas de mudança. A tradução natural é "persiste" ou "continua".

A expressão goes on transmite a mesma ideia de continuidade: indica que uma situação permanece no tempo, que não terminou. Assim, em "Digital divide still persists" pode-se entender como "the digital divide still goes on", isto é, a desigualdade digital continua vigente.

Em contextos jornalísticos e acadêmicos, usar goes on para traduzir persists é adequado quando se quer enfatizar a manutenção de um problema ao longo do tempo. Ambos ressaltam a continuidade da situação.
