Project description

The DEPART (Digital Education for Parents at Risk of Technology Exclusion) project supports parents with low or medium levels of education in developing digital skills and preventing technological exclusion. The project will create the DEPART Learning Kit, helping parents improve competencies in information and data literacy, digital safety, communication, and online collaboration. It also strengthens digital parenting skills, enabling parents to guide their children in using the internet safely and responsibly.

Project activities include developing a guide, six educational videos, and an e-learning platform, as well as organizing workshops for parents and educators, transnational learning activities, and awareness campaigns. The project will produce practical tools for parents’ digital education, create a European DEPART network, and raise digital awareness among at least 1,500 parents.
