In many developed countries, technologies such as mobile phones, computers and the internet are routinely used by young people in education and employment. Most young people are enthusiastic about technology and the benefits it can bring.
“Young people have a natural ability to use technology, regardless of their qualifications, knowledge, education or location. It doesn’t matter if a child is in California or the slums of Nairobi,” says Akhtar Badshah, senior director of community affairs at Microsoft.
