Digital technologies play a key role in solving many problems. With the Covid-19 outbreak, working conditions, education, socialization and interaction phenomena have changed. For this reason, it is necessary to examine the impact of the digital world mentioned in international reports. At this stage, literature review was used in the study. The digitalization reports published by the World Economic Forum (WEF), the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), the European Union (EU) and the Council of Europe (EC) have been examined. Although the effects of digitalization in the reports are quite extensive, they are mainly gathered within the framework of economic, technological and social impact. When the international reports are examined, it is seen that the economic impact is discussed with various topics such as the digital transformation of the labor market, international digital cooperation in the economic framework, the incentive of a digital ecosystem, and a sustainable growth. In terms of technological impacts, transparency and accountability, cyber security problems, technological responsibility, humanitarian control mechanism, are the subjects emphasized in the reports. In terms of social impact, it was observed that effective policies for digital life, digital education, e-information, were discussed. Finally, in terms of ethical approach, the social impact of privacy and data sharing, information and communication ethics, and digital justice are discussed. Digital transformation triggers massive data production and use. This situation draws the attention of institutions and especially international organizations. New approaches are needed to keep up with transformation. The emerging ideas focus on solving the digitalization effect. Especially in recent years, international reports have been published on the process of digitalization and its effects. In the reports, the change, development and problems caused by digitalization are mainly discussed. These problems are discussed in the reports in the context of economy, technology, social impact and ethical approach. Content analysis was carried out by considering the international reports mentioned. Content analysis is a categorization process performed within the framework of the basic assumptions of research. The most critical point in content analysis is that the assumptions about the categories are prepared in advance as a result of the researcher's knowledge. When the reports are examined, it is seen that the effects of digitalization are gathered in economic, technological, social and ethical fields. For this reason, the items on digital life effects discussed in the reports were evaluated under four categories. It is aimed to determine the economic, technological, social effects and ethical approaches of digitalization. The study also sought answers to some of the following questions: 1- What areas are the effects of digitalization in international reports? 2- Are there common points regarding the effects of digitalization in international reports? 3- Is a common digital ecosystem encouraged in international reports? 4- Are there any problems in the existence, implementation and control of norms related to digital ethics in international reports?
