Call for Papers: (SPECIAL ISSUE) Digital Education for All (SCOPUS)

We are excited to announce a Special Issue of the SCOPUS Indexed Journal "Quality Education for All" titled "Digital Education for All,” which invites contributions exploring how digital technologies can foster inclusive, equitable, and high-quality learning for communities worldwide.

Why this Special Issue?

The global shift to digital education has opened new opportunities but also exposed deep-rooted inequalities. From infrastructure and affordability to teacher readiness, inclusivity, and ethics—digital education today is as much a socio-cultural and policy challenge as it is a technological one.
