It identifies a research gap and proposes objectives to analyze the effects of globalization and digitalization on digital inclusion disparities among marginalized populations, assess specific challenges faced by underserved groups, investigate existing digital inclusion strategies' effectiveness, and propose targeted interventions. The recommendations include promoting digital technology usage, implementing education and training programs, enacting policy interventions, fostering community engagement, addressing barriers, and advocating for continuous monitoring and evaluation. Overall, digital inclusion is critical to fostering a more equitable and inclusive society in the digital age.
