Project V.O.I.C.E. Output 1 – “Toolkit for rights and citizenship on the web” – is a web platform that provides European social workers information, training resources, activities and methods to prevent and fight digital risks and promote digital citizenship rights.
The social disadvantage of fragile people is evident in all aspects of daily life, but the gap is particularly evident in the use of digital technologies and the web, which are now strategic for an adequate access to information, to promote a conscious use of social media, to limit the digital divide and to increase training opportunities and placement in the world of work.
The “Declaration of Internet Rights” approved in Italy in 2015 and incorporated in the joint EU Resolution at the Internet Governance Forum 2015 (UN) on the rights of the person, identifies in the Internet a universal right, and focuses on the rights of citizenship on the Net – right to access, literacy, net neutrality, privacy, etc. – with the basic premise that the protection of personal rights must prevail over profits. Internet must be open and accessible everywhere, it must promote non-discriminatory access to knowledge and information and cybersecurity.
The social inclusion of vulnerable individuals is also achieved through the possibility of exercising their digital citizenship rights, thanks to responsible access to technologies and protection from the dangers of the web.
Responsible access to the web (digital citizenship rights) and active citizenship (social citizenship rights) are closely connected in the promotion of social empowerment.
In this process, social professionals that support fragile people must develop new skills to better understand technology’s benefits and risks and support fragile people exercising their digital citizenship rights and be included in the digital society in a responsible and safe way.
