1575 1575 people viewed this event.

The ALL DIGITAL Weeks 2023 are being kicked off with an International Launch Event bringing together high-level speakers and experts on the key themes of the campaign. We are proud to have the campaign launched by an intervention by Nicolas Schmit, Commissioner for Jobs and Social Rights, followed by keynote addresses by some of the campaign’s strategic partners.

A policy discussion on “Digital Skills for Equity, Diversity and Inclusion – from basic to advanced” features key actors representing the European Commission, the grassroots level provision of digital competence trainings, academia, civil society, industry professionals and social economy. To round out the launch event, we will give the floor to three key initiatives in furthering digital competence development for all in the form of the on-going feasibility study on a European Digital Skills Certificate (EDSC), the ALL DIGITAL Academy, and the DigComp Hub.
