Abstract: 
The digital divide can be determined by the gap between those people who are literate and have access to various information resources (such as the Internet) and those who do not have access to them.The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the digital vulnerability of many rural citizens. Through this article, the author wants to identify and analyze the proposals in the literature to bridge the digital divide in the rural world. The global and national countryside, faced with a serious division, but with a great possibility of growth, must benefit from policies designed to increase access to the Internet and information.Online databases were used to identify scientific articles from which, after screening, certain key documents were selected. The results update the systematic analysis of articles published in the last five years on digital and rural development and also intend to provide various recommendations. A variety of political, social, educational, technical and economic issues were exposed, with an emphasis on rural populations. The conclusions consist of proposals that can be considered to bridge the rural digital divide.
