Digital Development Toolkit
To address sector and country-level regulatory policies in digital development 
developed a Digital Development Toolkit
To address regulatory policies on digital development at sector and country levels, a Digital Development Toolkit has been developed. This toolkit offers a range of services and solutions from the World Bank to enable client countries to leverage the power of digital development. The toolkit is focused on key elements that contribute to strong, inclusive, and responsible digital transformation. These include:
- Broadband Connectivity, Access, and Use
- Digital Data Infrastructure
- Digital Safeguards
- Digital and Climate
- ICT Industry and Digital Jobs
The World Bank provides an extensive range of services and solutions to make sure client countries can implement the benefits of digital development. Its activities in the sector are based on systematic efforts across the World Bank Group which, combined, form the basis for strong, inclusive, and responsible digital transformation for economies, governments, and societies.
The toolkit consists of several modules including the Digital Government Readiness Assessment (DGRA) Toolkit, the Digital Capability Framework, the Digital Regulation Platform, and others, each targeting specific areas of digital development.
The series of toolkits consist of the Digital Government Readiness Assessment (DGRA) Toolkit, the Digital Capability Framework, the Digital Regulation Platform, the Engendering ICT Toolkit, the Cross-Sector Infrastructure Sharing Toolkit, the Cloud Readiness Assessment Toolkit, and the Broadband Strategies Toolkit.
- Digital Government Readiness Assessment (DGRA) Toolkit that focuses on assessing the current status of digital government transformation, a core part of the digital economy, and proposes future-looking action plans to improve and/or develop a comprehensive national ICT strategy.
- Digital Capability Framework was conceived as the conceptual framework for understanding and contextualizing the concept of digital capabilities.
- Digital Regulation Platform aims to provide practical guidance and best practice for policymakers and regulators across the globe concerned with harnessing the benefits of the digital economy and society for their citizens and firms.
- Engendering ICT Toolkit seeks to highlight the likely barriers that women face in owning, accessing, and benefiting from digital sector interventions implemented by the World Bank.
- Cross-Sector Infrastructure Sharing Toolkit focuses exclusively on the joint use of infrastructure by telecommunications network operators and owners of infrastructure developed primarily for purposes other than the provision of public telecommunications services. The toolkit is intended as a guide for infrastructure owners, broadband access network and wholesale telecommunications network operators, policymakers, lawmakers, regulators, international economic development institutions, and other stakeholders interested in harnessing the potential of cross-sector infrastructure sharing to facilitate broadband development.
- Cloud Readiness Assessment Toolkit defines cloud computing, with a detailed explanation of essential characteristics, service models, deployment models, benefits, risks, migrating applications, and visualization.
- Broadband Strategies Toolkit tries to capture how broadband is defined, why it is important, and how its development can be encouraged. The toolkit looks at broadband as an ecosystem consisting of both supply and demand components, both of which are equally important if the expansion of broadband networks and services is to be successful.
