Context

DIGITAL ACCESS was a European cooperation project aimed at training elderly people to develop specific digital skills needed to access public services online, coordinated by AKLUB, a Czech non-profit educational organisation.

Objectives

The project aimed to train elderly people in digital skills for public-service access, overcome barriers of access, skills, confidence and motivation, apply a confidence-building approach using real-life scenarios, and support active ageing.

Activities

Outputs included public-services road maps for five EU countries, a training programme for basic digital skills and public-service access, an e-learning and e-assistance platform with a virtual-assistance tool, and policy recommendations for active ageing and digital literacy.

Conclusions

The record lists key learning points as 'NEI' and states 'Evaluation: No'; deliverables are described as project outputs rather than measured outcomes.
