 World Telecommunication Information Society Day is an opportunity to highlight the huge potential for digital technologies to improve our lives. This year, we're drawing attention to the many benefits of digital technologies for older persons. These tools can help older people connect with families and friends, stay well informed and maintain their health and well-being. The challenge is to make sure that all older people can access these technologies, and they don't become another reason that some people are left behind. WHO is proud to partner with the ITU to realize the power of technology for healthy aging and a healthier world.
