Competitiveness, Change Readiness, and ICT Development: An Empirical Investigation of TOE Framework for Poverty Alleviation

Abstract

The Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 1 – ‘No Poverty’ is one of the ambitious goals of all nations across the globe. Multiple factors lead to poverty in a nation. Hence, the alleviation of poverty requires governments to address these multiple factors at various levels of society. This study is an attempt to understand a few factors that can help poverty alleviation. Many theoretical studies provide different frameworks for poverty alleviation but a dearth of studies that empirically shows that poverty alleviation is possible. This study is an empirical investigation that looks into the macro-level factors that could help alleviate poverty through the lens of the Technology-Organization-Environment (TOE) framework. It underscores the mediating role of ICT development of the nations that change-ready and are competitive enough to address poverty at the grass-root level and thus strive for achieving the SDG goal 1. The results strengthen our argument that nations that are competitive and change-ready using ICT development measures could address the problem of poverty.
