Abstract
The 2030 Agenda considers Information and Communications Technology (ICT), and related technologies, as a tool capable of contributing to increasing progress in bridging the digital divide between communities. The main objective of this paper is to give an overview of the most promising application areas in order to successfully apply Internet of Things (IoT) to achieve SDGs in developing countries, also bringing out pros and cons of these applications and current challenges. A review of relevant literature and an analysis of key case studies of projects will be conducted in this research, with the aim of reducing inequalities in developing countries. This study seeks to highlight and classify some of the emerging IoT-based applications to reduce inequalities in developing countries, helping the achievement of SDGsI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
