Project description
The new, Internet based communication technologies are of growing importance within the European Union. More and more information about social and political development is only accessible on the Internet. According to the available data it is predicted, that within two years, the majority of European population will have Internet access. Older people in many EU countries have so far been excluded from these developments.
In this learning partnership called EuCoNet (European Computer Network) the target group - older people from Italy, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Germany and Scotland - play an active role by reflecting on their cultural experience of the opening up of the Internet. They exchange and compare differences and review the possibility of applying what is best from each country. Multiplier networks, development of Internet Cafés for older people and the development of learning material for this target group have all made substantial contributions to advancement.
