According to a report released by Eurostat, Cyprus has emerged as a notable leader within the European Union in terms of the gender gap in digital skills among young individuals. In 2025, the country recorded the largest disparity favoring young women aged 16 to 24, with a significant percentage of them demonstrating at least basic digital skills. Specifically, 63.9% of young women in Cyprus possessed these skills, which surpasses the corresponding figure for young men.
Despite this achievement, it is important to note that Cyprus overall fell short of the EU average for young people with at least basic digital competencies. This highlights a broader context in which, while young women in Cyprus excel in digital literacy compared to their male counterparts, there remains work to be done to elevate the overall digital skill levels among all young people in the country. This data underscores the unique dynamics of digital skill acquisition and gender representation in Cyprus.
