Ghana ranked among African countries with the best digital quality of life index

Digitization has become the status quo in today’s world. There are numerous tasks that were painstaking years ago but are today, performed with the touch of a screen.

However, while digitization has become a norm in some regions of the world, others are still struggling to integrate tech into their everyday lives.

Surf Shark, a cyber security service company located in the Netherland, released a study, showing countries in the world with the most digitization.

They based their findings on 5 key metrics, including internet affordability, internet quality, electronic infrastructure, electronic security, and electronic government.

Collating data on these components, the company was able to put together the countries with the best digital quality of life index (DQL).

The 2022 DQL by Surf Shark is the company’s 4th iteration of the study. Since 2019, Surf Shark has been conducting this research, and each year, the list looks a little bit different.
