e-Inclusion: Be Part of It!

e-Inclusion: Be Part of It!The campaign "e-Inclusion: Be Part of It!" is part of the European e-Inclusion Initiative, which seeks to build on all existing e-Inclusion activities and identify synergies between them and improvements in overall e-Inclusion impact. You can be part of this campaign by submitting your events, projects, initiatives and experiences.

Yet more than one in three Europeans do not fully benefit from these opportunities. The social and economic implications are huge and affect us all. In today's society, access to information is a right as well as a condition for prosperity. It is not acceptable, nor is it economically sustainable, to leave millions of people behind, unable to use Information and Communications Technologies to their advantage.

That is why the European Commission has adopted a European initiative on e-Inclusion setting out key actions, including the "e-Inclusion, be part of it!" awareness and dissemination campaign for 2008.

The main intention is to build on the many positive activities in Europe and beyond that are relevant to e-Inclusion. Most of these are unknown outside their immediate community. "By raising the visibility and sharing experiences, we can inspire others and stimulate more efficient approaches to promote e-Inclusion. In preparation for launching this Campaign we have identified 200 examples of positive e-Inclusion initiatives from across Europe", is mentioned on the "e-Inclusion: Be Part of It!" campaign web site.
