Internet use became the norm for humanity only very recently—

For many readers in high-income countries, the Internet might no longer feel revolutionary. But back in 1997, only 2% of the world's population used the Internet. By 2019, that number had risen to over 50%; today, two-thirds of the global population is online.

It’s worth taking a moment to appreciate the novelty and speed of this change, for two reasons.

First, much of the potential progress enabled by the Internet is still unfolding, from expanding educational opportunities through free online resources to reducing the cost of sending money home for migrants.

Second, it’s good to remember that in 2023, a third of people still didn’t use the Internet. Accelerating connectivity could give these individuals greater freedom and access to new opportunities.

The United Nations aims to get more than 90% of people online by 2030. Some regions are still far from universal access, with just 43% of South Asia and 37% of Sub-Saharan Africa connected.

Para muchas personas en países de ingresos altos, Internet ya no parece algo revolucionario.

Pero en 1997, solo el 2% de la población mundial lo usaba. En 2019, esa cifra superó el 50%, y hoy dos tercios del mundo están conectados.

Vale la pena detenerse a pensar en lo reciente y rápido que ha sido este cambio, por dos razones.

Primero, gran parte del progreso que permite Internet aún está en marcha: desde ampliar el acceso a la educación gratuita en línea hasta reducir el costo de enviar dinero a casa para las personas migrantes.

Segundo, en 2023 todavía un tercio de la población mundial no usaba Internet. Acelerar la conectividad puede darles más libertad y acceso a nuevas oportunidades.

Las Naciones Unidas se han propuesto que más del 90% del mundo esté en línea para 2030. Algunas regiones están aún lejos de ese objetivo: solo el 43% del sur de Asia y el 37% del África subsahariana están conectados.
