Digitally Inclusive – Municipality of TilburgAt the highest level, digital inclusion means that everyone is able to participate in technological developments that shape everyday life. It concerns the safe use of the internet, access to digital services, awareness of the possibilities of the internet, and having the necessary equipment, infrastructure, support, and skills. Participation promotes equal opportunities and a voice in important societal issues. As a local authority serving residents, entrepreneurs, and visitors, the municipality of Tilburg strives to make all residents digitally inclusive. This is a complex challenge—especially because the current situation is not yet fully clear and because it is unknown who is most in need of support. A fine assignment for researchers at the Centre for Digital Inclusion.digitl inclusionillteracyinterventionliteracyRead more
Launch of the Over Informatie Gesproken projectOur new project Over Informatie Gesproken has officially kicked off! In the Twente region, we will be working over the coming months on two topical case studies: the Neighbourhood Implementation Plan De Thij in Oldenzaal and Almelo Centraal, focusing on the redevelopment of the railway zone. Together with residents, municipalities, housing associations, and other stakeholders, we are reconstructing the information timeline: what information was shared when, how it was received, and where things did—or did not—go well. We will translate these insights into concrete lessons for improving participation processes in which everyone can take part.informationparticipationproectRead more
