National digital development reviews for 2021: Guiding manual

April 2022

The guiding manual on national digital development reviews comprises technical and organizational guidelines. The technical guidelines include the ESCWA conceptual framework for digital development, and the 2021 national digital development reviews standard template. The regulatory guidelines include the 2021 national digital development reviews process, and terms of reference for national focal points.

It is based on a comprehensive conceptual framework for digital development consisting of five clusters, which was developed by ESCWA in 2018 to include all aspects of digital policies related to strategic frameworks, the State, the economy, society, culture and the media, so as to facilitate follow-up on the action lines of the World Summit on the Information Society and the Sustainable Development Goals.
