Research on Digital Rural Construction and Youth Participation Paths

Abstract: This paper delves into the intimate relationship between digital rural construction and youth participation. Research indicates that youth serve as the core force in digital rural construction, and their active involvement is crucial for advancing rural digitization. However, youth encounter various challenges in the participation process, such as technological barriers and financial constraints. To overcome these challenges, further reinforcement of policy support, diversification of educational and training opportunities, and establishment of cooperation platforms are necessary. Looking ahead, with continuous innovation and application of digital technologies, digital rural construction will offer broader development space for youth. By engaging in agricultural industrial upgrading, rural e-commerce development, and other endeavors, youth can contribute to the revitalization of rural economies. Additionally, enhancing international cooperation and talent cultivation will infuse fresh vitality into digital rural construction, propelling rural development to higher levels.
