The conference on digital inclusion of the elderly and vulnerable groups successfully held in Zagreb
How to include the digitally excluded was the topic of the conference on digital inclusion in the context of empowering the elderly and vulnerable groups. The conference was held on May 19, 2023 at the Algebra Spark Space center.
Žarko Čižmar from the Telecenter then presented the guidelines for the digital inclusion of vulnerable social groups, created within the framework of this project.
Iva Klak Mršić presented the information literacy programs for the elderly, which are implemented by the Libraries of the City of Zagreb
Alisa Fabris from the Faculty of Education and Rehabilitation presented the accessible educational digital platform DigiAcademy for people with intellectual disabilities, which was created as part of the Digi-ID Plus project.
After interesting presentations, a panel discussion was held “How to include the digitally excluded?” during which it was discussed what digital inclusion is and what digital knowledge and skills all citizens should adopt and why. Do we need a systematic approach to digital inclusion, who should implement digital inclusion programs and where these programs should be implemented.
The discussion also touched on the need for expert e-facilitators who should provide digital inclusion services, digital inclusion programs as an integral part of civic education of young people, as well as the direction in which developmental inclusion projects should go.
The project was co-financed by the European Union from the European Social Fund. The content of this announcement is the sole responsibility of Telecenter.
