Telecentre-Europe AISBL has partnered with 7 of its member organizations and the European Students Union (ESU) for implementing Uniting Europe through digital empowerment (UniteIT), a 36 months network project aimed at raising awareness and foster sharing and joint actions to overcome the digital divide. During 19-20 November the kick-off meeting took place in Timisoara and was hosted by EOS Foundation, the Romanian partner of the project.
The project aims at sharing knowledge, exchange of practices, set up debates in key topics and develop new strategic partnership involving actors across societal domains to contribute to overcome the digital divide and promote the acquisition of digital competences by groups-at-risk of exclusion.
Representatives from Telecentre-Europe AISBL and the partner organizations from Malta (Malta Communication Authority - MCA), Serbia (Serbian International Aid Network - IAN), Hungary (Foundation for Development of Democratic Rights - Demnet), Latvia (Latvian Information and Communications Technology Association - LIKTA), Belgium (Interface3 asbl), Romania (Educating for an Open Society Foundation EOS), Croatia (Telecentar) and the European Students Union (ESU) came together for discussing the objectives, deliverables, schedule, impact and work packages of the UniteITproject.
