The GDC 2025 will explore the multifaceted dimensions of inclusive digital transformation and its role in shaping sustainable development outcomes through the theme – ‘Inclusive Digital Transformation: Social Impacts and Technological Innovations’.
As digital technologies continue to revolutionise economies and societies worldwide, it is crucial to examine their social impacts and ensure that technological innovations benefit all segments of society, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).
The conference will examine the social implications of this change, debate novel solutions, and discuss digital inclusion policies. It will also explore how technology can advance the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals, particularly focused on digital inclusion, equality, and sustainable development, while bringing stakeholders together to leverage digital technologies for social and economic progress.
We invite you to contribute to the development of the conference program. This is a unique opportunity to propose topics and activities that will be presented during the conference.
We are looking for ideas for a wide range of conference segments: plenary and parallel sessions, opening speeches, interactive workshops, or training sessions.

The GDC 2025 is organized by the GDN in partnership with FERDI and the Center for Studies and Research on International Development (CERDI) as part of their collaboration within the Clermont-Ferrand International Development Hub (PCDI).
