ALL DIGITAL Weeks 2023 will strongly contribute to the promotion of the European Year of Skills, promoted by the European Commission, and its actions will be underpinned under the motto ’’Enhance your digital skills’’ which is a call to action for all European citizens and every individual living in Europe to learn new skills, both basic and advanced, to be able to face digital transformation with confidence.
