About the Programme

As part of ODI's commitment to making equity, inclusive growth, social justice and sustainability central to all our work and acknowledging how digitalisation has fundamentally reshaped our societies, ODI has created a dedicated Digital Societies Initiative to explore how technology can be harnessed for the greater good and to identify ways to monitor and reduce its potential to damage positive outcomes – justice, equality and inclusion.

The Digital Societies Initiative brings a distinctly political economy lens to the study of evolving digital societies globally whilst working in partnership across ODI to leverage research expertise on a range of themes, including conflict and crisis, the humanitarian system, gender norms, digital public infrastructure and public financial management. As part of the initiative, ODI also works with frontline actors, civil society advocacy and research organisations.
