A new political agenda for education in Europe
“43% of the EU population has low levels of digital education, and 17% are
lacking any digital skills, which puts them at serious risk of exclusion.
Expanding digital education opportunities is a priority. […]
The main goal of all our efforts, however, needs to be to equip the young
generations with strong digital skills. We can help achieve this for example
through focusing on digital literacy, computer science and informatics for all, so
that children and young people understand and deal critically with digital
technology – both in terms of its promises but also its dangers. The world is
already digital, so are our children, but our education is not yet there.”

Editor's Notes
- #4 Given the speed and scale of digital transformation, we must urgently step up our action on digital skills. 43% of the EU population has low levels of digital education, and 17% are lacking any digital skills, which puts them at serious risk of exclusion. Expanding digital education opportunities is another priority. We need to make education institutions fit for the digital age in a lifelong learning perspective. I am in particular going to focus on the opportunities such as massive open online courses, to reach as many people as possible. We need to use digital technology intelligently to make education both more effective and more inclusive. The main goal of all our efforts, however, needs to be to equip the young generations with strong digital skills. We can help achieve this for example through focusing on digital literacy, computer science and informatics for all, so that children and young people understand and deal critically with digital technology – both in terms of its promises but also its dangers. The world is already digital, so are our children, but our education is not yet there.”
