YOUNG, TRANSITIONS AND DIGITAL: TOGETHER TO BUILD A FUTURE SUSTAINABLE AND INCLUSIVE

To accelerate the Digital Transition to a renewed "literacy" of the 21st century

The interconnectedness and complexity of the current world require the emergence of new skills that make technology not the end but the powerful means by which to be accomplished.
Literally "literacy”, literacy is a term as well as a phenomenon, complex given its polyemanticity and the multi-layered contextual and cultural sedimentations that characterize it, the result of a forty-year interdisciplinary speculation, still today arena of debates on what should be understood by literacy and what it means to be 'literate' in the next company 5.0.
A world V.U.C.A. like the current one - characterized by volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity - is physiologically subject to an incessant writing and re-writing of the boundaries of the literacy, in relation, above all, to theirrevocable impact of technology in everyday social practices and the way we give meaning to our surroundings. Far beyond the mere ability to read and write, the future needs a integral literacyand therefore also digital: the only one capable of hacking the present and mastering complexity, rather than rejecting it, to be active and aware citizens.
The National Recovery and Resilience Plan in total consistency with the NextGenerationEUaims to promote the country’s digital development as well as green, with the 40% of the territorial resources allocated to the Mezzogiornoan investment programme strongly oriented towards gender inclusion and supporting the education, training and employment of young people.
To fully implement an acceleration in the direction of the Digital and Ecological Transition, a Cultural Transition is essential, which necessarily passes from the acquisition of new skills and frameworks of thought, as well as technological tools.
In its desire to lead the digital revolution towards the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals, the Paideia Digital Academy hopes for a indissoluble union between digitalization and green economyby providing girls and boys, boys and girls with a place that is protected and conducive to innovation and the proactive use of technologies for the implementation of the ecological transition: the digital transition becomes, thus, a guiding element for sustainable development.
Today more than ever, it is necessary that the concept of digital native and that of environmental native integrate and harmonize so that new generations re-acquire the weight of social responsibility of their actions: every digital process needs much more energy than an equivalent analog process.
That’s why the Paideia Digital Academy, a June and July 2023, opens the doors of the Castle of the Princes Capano Pollica (SA) to girls and boys, girls and boys for an exciting offer of training courses to digital that represent a unique opportunity to transform the long summer days in a moment of growth and fun, between play, art, music, sport, technology and nature.
