The aim of this research is to identify how bridging the gender gap can accelerate the achievement of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. At present, 200 million fewer women are online than their male counterparts, highlighting the gender inequality that exists online. The disparity in the number of women online has a detrimental effect on the ability to achieve sustainable development goals by the United Nations target date of 2030. The first endeavours research to understand the current discourse of what is understood by the term "digital gender divide" within contemporary literature. Drawing knowledge from existing literature, The Reasons for the gender digital divide are Critically Assessed and conceptualized Within an empirical framework before offering an insight into how droughts barriers can be addressed and Overcome. The removal of such obstacles, therefore, paves the way for United Nations Sustainable Development Goals to flourish. The evidence collated throughout the study details the intricate connection between sustainable development and gender equality, concluding that significant progress towards sustainable development canbe made if more women are online.
