Context

Por Talento Digital is a digital-skills training programme run by Fundación ONCE (Spain's foundation for employment and technology linked to the national organisation of blind people), launched in 2021 with a dedicated training centre in Madrid; in February 2026 it opened a second centre in Barcelona with Barcelona City Council, the Generalitat de Catalunya and GSMA.

Results

The European Commission's Spain representation reports close to 30,000 people with disabilities trained since 2021, including 3,700 in 2025 alone (48% women), with ESF+ co-funding covering roughly 70% of Fundación ONCE's inclusion work; the new Barcelona centre carries a four-year commitment to train 1,000 people through 2029. Reported cumulative totals vary across sources and years (roughly 2,000 to 30,000) without independent reconciliation.
