The republican monitoring data for 2022 serve the basis for analyzing the readiness of the Belarusian population for changes in the digital sphere via formation of digital literacy. Given a low level of digital literacy of the population of the republic, information and media literacy skills are assessed as more developed, and computer literacy skills – as less developed. Male representatives aged 18 to 29 years, living in an urban environment, working in professional spheres that require constant use of digital technologies (IT-industry, media, banking sector etc.) are revealed as most prepared for the digital society, however no pronounced differences for digital literacy between males and females are found. Representatives of the 50+ generation are least prepared for the digital world. It is suggested that the accelerating digitalization of the Belarusian society will force Belarusians to master digital literacy skills at a faster pace.
