According to the *2021 Indonesia Digital Literacy Status Report* from the Ministry of Communication and Informatics and the Katadata Insight Center (KIC), Indonesia had an average digital literacy index score of 3.49 points last year.
This score is on a scale of 1-5, thus indicating that Indonesian society's digital literacy is generally at a "moderate" level.
Furthermore, when viewed by gender, women's digital literacy is generally not yet equal to that of men.
The report notes that 55% of male respondents had high digital literacy scores (above the national average). Meanwhile, only 45% of female respondents achieved scores above the average.
The proportion of female respondents with low digital literacy scores (below average) is also higher than that of males, as shown in the graph.
This digital literacy score is measured through four main indicator pillars: Digital Skills, Digital Ethics, Digital Safety, and Digital Culture.
The assessment was conducted based on a survey of 10,000 respondents across Indonesia. Respondents were aged between 13 and 70 years old and had accessed the internet within the last three months.
The survey used a multistage random sampling method with home visits in the survey area. The margin of error for this survey is approximately 0.98% at a 95% confidence level.
