Decreasing digital divide among people living in remote disadvantaged areas of Hungary with mobile ICTs

Aim: Through a training programme, adults who live in remote disadvantaged areas of Hungary who are working in agriculture or who are physically challenged will make a step forward in digital literacy and will widen their digital competencies therefore increasing their possibilities in all areas of their lives, especially in work.
Activity: The curriculum focuses on mobile ICTs that can help those the most who are in some way restricted in movement/changing locations.
Outcomes: Increased digital competencies within the target group.

Context: A great number of people in Hungary live in remote areas where ICT is not very well known and used, and a lot of people with physical disabilities could use ICT for creating equal opportunities for them in work through working remotely. These disadvantaged groups are rarely addressed and this project could greatly help in their e-inclusion and in raising their standards of living.
