SURVIVING DIGITAL (SURVIVRE AU DIGITAL)

The project "SURVIVRE AU DIGITAL" aims to take care of adults and their children in disadvantaged areas, particularly those facing problems related to overexposure to screens. These issues cause various developmental problems in young children. They are especially severe in families already affected by difficult socio-economic situations. In the era of digital transition, the City of Saint Denis has engaged in this initiative around screens with the Institute of Research and Innovation. To design and implement new therapeutic practices to address the harmful effects of overexposure to screens, the IRI proposed an experimental program involving parents, healthcare and early childhood professionals, as well as researchers, for workshop sessions based on knowledge sharing and empowerment. To enrich this experience with the expertise of partners and test new ways to value residents' contributions, they identified partners in Greece, Italy, France, Ireland, and Denmark: prevention organizations, healthcare providers, research institutions, digital specialists, and adult education professionals.

SURVIVING DIGITAL is dedicated to the creation of new tools for training adults (professionals and parents) in the fight against the harmful effects of screens in their daily lives. Its aim is to reinforce digital transformation through the development of digital awareness, resilience and capacity. One of its goals is to develop the skills of adults and those who support them: health professionals, early childhood, education, culture, civic participation. This project also contributes to the valorization of this knowledge and of local people, as it shows how their contribution is necessary for the transformation of European cities. The project Surviving DIGITAL intends to make an impact on: educators, mediators and health professionals who work with the most vulnerable members of society workers in social enterprises (public or private) who develop innovative projects in the field of citizen participation local residents (especially the most vulnerable), who are recognized for their know-how, which they in turn can pass on to their peers by becoming ambassadors. Adult education players who develop new tools adapted to the needs of our territories, to support their digital transition Local authorities developing projects to

Our partners are organizations active in adult education, a local community (especially health authorities), research institutes, and social and cultural centers. To achieve our goals, we have worked to: - Develop new practices to address young children's overexposure to screens, collaborating with parents, professionals, and local researchers. - Organize contributive clinic workshops to exchange knowledge between new parents and professionals. - Facilitate digital transition and improve digital skills. These activities have brought together the following participants: - Educators, mediators, health and early childhood actors who work with the most vulnerable individuals. - Workers from social enterprises (public or private). - Residents and parents from the communities (especially the most vulnerable), including young parents, women, primarily, and people of foreign origin - allophones - who are more exposed (along with their families and children) to screen overexposure issues. - Adult education actors. - Representatives from local authorities.

Our project unites experienced partners (LABA, MATERAHUB, MOMENTUM, IASIS, EUEI) and those with less or no experience (IRI, Ville de Saint Denis). Together, partners implemented training, dissemination events, and workshops and developed: R1: Guide to innovative practices gathers innovative methods to mitigate the harmful effects of screen exposure (includes various resources and presents 30 case studies) R2: Methodological guide that emphasizes parental involvement and highlights contributive research. It focuses on theoretical foundations and practical applications, particularly emphasizing recognition of their contributions. R3: Training modules for professionals and parents: two innovative training courses, aimed at enhancing their skills to support digital transition efforts. R4: Online toolbox for inclusive teaching tools and community spaces - a wide range of online tools within a multilingual and interactive platform. We held 5 transnational meetings to coordinate actions. 2 training activities involved 77 educators, fostering improvement. 5 partners organized 5 dissemination events across 4 countries, engaging 448 participants. A continuous evaluation method ensured project success, alongside a communication strategy
