Measuring the Digital Transformation
A Roadmap for the Future
Measuring the Digital Transformation: A Roadmap for the Future provides new insights into the state of the digital transformation by mapping indicators across a range of areas – from education and innovation, to trade and economic and social outcomes – against current digital policy issues, as presented in Going Digital: Shaping Policies, Improving Lives. In so doing, it identifies gaps in the current measurement framework, assesses progress made towards filling these gaps and sets-out a forward-looking measurement roadmap. The goal is to expand the evidence base, as a means to lay the ground for more robust policies for growth and well-being in the digital era.

Well-being and the digital transformation
The OECD Framework for Measuring Well-being and Progress (http://www.oecd.org/statistics/measuring-well-being-and-progress.htm) is intended to challenge how policy makers and society as a whole think about progress. It recognises 11 dimensions of well-being that are key for a better life. Impacts of the digital transformation on these dimensions are ambiguous; both risks and opportunities exist in areas such as work-life balance, social connections, and governance and civic engagement.
