History of Inforum e-Inclusion programs

e-Skills and NGOs: tools for common Europe – An Opinion

East of Brussels the gap is increasing between East and West Europe. This gap is defined by the GDP, the civilisation, cultural and solidarity level of the society, the political players’ democratic commitment. The proper actions initiated by the EU have different meanings and lead to different results in the different countries. Consequently lagging behind the common objectives is permanent, and the citizens’ disappointment increases.

E-INCLUSION IN HUNGARY, 2008 – Inforum report

Executive Summary

Is Hungary rich enough to write off the larger half of the population of active age and to preclude them from the information society? In the age of the internet does the society have the right to open “digital infinity” only for the children, the young people, people with high education, high income, and the inhabitants of cities, and to direct the elderly, the people living in remote villages, the poor, and the less educated to a modern “societal Taygetus”? In our age the basis of getting information is the electric media, and the terrain of societal communication is the internet; and the internet will be more and more the terrain of working and exercising the citizen rights as well. Therefore, can the country allow itself to erect prohibitive barriers for several million people with such reasons likethat they are too old to learn; they live too far for accessing the internet; they are too stupid to learn the skills of the age? Thus, do we have the right to preclude thate generation from which we could otherwise learn as well?
