We consider that the BEDIGIT project has contributed to tangible outcomes, such as the Training Manual and the Digital Toolkit, which are accessible to educators, SMEs, and citizens. A digital inclusion assessment was carried out in the participating countries, aiming to identify key gaps and needs through research, including surveys and discussion groups among the target individuals. Based on these findings, we organized workshops and training sessions to support the development of digital competencies and encourage online civic participation. A digital platform was designed to facilitate the open dissemination of materials, seeking to enhance accessibility and promote their long-term use while ensuring a visually engaging format. Additionally, the project sought to encourage sustainable digital practices by exploring strategies to reduce the carbon footprint associated with technology use. Overall, we believe that BEDIGIT has contributed to fostering a more inclusive, secure, and sustainable digital community.
