UN Envoy on Technology calls for digital capacity building across the UN system

Digital technologies have emerged as the primary catalysts for transformative change. As they continue to change the way we work and solve problems, it has become imperative for individuals, governments and the United Nations to consistently update and realign their skills, knowledge, and behaviours in line with the demands of digital transformation. 

Amandeep Singh Gill,  UN Secretary-General's Envoy on Technology stresses the need to invest in digital capacities to transform our organisation’s skills, processes and technologies towards digitally enabled programmes and solutions.
