> Access to broadband or the Internet at home is the most inclusive way of bringing people online. At home, all household members can have access – no matter whether they have jobs, go to school, are male or female, children, adults or elderly.

> Research has shown that children with Internet access at home perform better in school. And children using the Internet at home are usually under parental guidance and therefore betterprotected against online dangers.

> In developed countries, more than two thirds of households already had Internet access at the end of 2010, compared to around 16% of households in the developing world. This is likely to increase significantly by 2015, especially with the rise of mobile Internet.

> This target includes access via both fixed and mobile networks.
