Session description

A digital citizenship refers to a person utilizing information technology (IT) in order to engage in society, politics, and government. It is an essential 21st-century skill that guides people to think critically, behave safely, and participate responsibly in our digital society. A digital society can bring about economic and societal gain, but dangers exist like social exclusion and further inequalities pose further risks. Therefore it is very important to establish trust and transparent digital sociaty for its citizens. In general the public needs to trust that organizations and government will not misuse their personal data and people have power over their information at the Internet. Also, digital citizen is always eager to ask more from the organizations and governments – to be better involved and secured at the digital world. On the other hand, some people lack the ICT skills (like children, young and disabled people) or have no digital identity (like refugees). It’s another problem that European countries have to face today – how to secure that digital citizens have their knowledge and digital identity in general? In Europe the digital societies are very different. Some countries have more advantages for it’s citizens than others. At the session we’ll focus on the matter of digital citizens at the Internet and what are it’s good and bad sides about it. Are we are equal in the same manner? What’s the idea of perfect society? Therefore we will also emphasize the best practices of e-Estonia. e-Estonia refers to a movement by the government of Estonia to facilitate citizen interactions with the state through the use of electronic solutions. Estonia is a first country in the world that provides to become world citizen - a transnational digital identity available to anyone in the world interested in administering a location-independent business online.
