According to UNESCO, Tech skills are the ability to use digital devices, communication applications, and networks to access and manage information. They enable people to create and share digital content, communicate, collaborate, and solve problems for effective and creative self-fulfillment in life, learning, work, and social activities.

​

Tech skills allow users to make use of digital technologies in empowering and transformative ways such as artificial intelligence and machine learning and, in turn, impact capacity building and skills development for the 21st-century digital economy.
