Digital transition is accelerating across Europe, with the European Commission developing initiatives to make the next decade “Europe’s digital decade”. Despite all positive foreseen outcomes, such a transformation can potentially further exclude those who are already socially and/or digitally excluded, such as people experiencing homelessness.
What are the risks that homeless people may face if they remain digitally excluded while digital transition only fastens? What are the challenges regarding digital inclusion of the homeless? Which good practices exist to overcome these challenges? Which are the benefits of digitalisation for people in homelessness? These are some of the questions we address in the webinar on digitalisation and homelessness.
