ITU’s contribution to the implementation of the Antigua and Barbuda Agenda for SIDS
LEAVE NO ONE BEHIND
Leave no one behind is the central, transformative promise of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and its SDGs.
In all ten action areas above, implement policy programmes and ecosystem initiatives for meaningful digital inclusion for
women, youth, persons with disabilities or other vulnerable groups traditionally marginalized or under-represented. Create
mechanisms that empower and actively encourage the multistakeholder participation of all in relevant decision‐making
processes. Leverage online tools, in particular official information and citizen participation platforms and digital public services
delivery channels.
