Today
not only is considered illiterate who can not read and write but those who do not know how to use telematics, internet and social networking. To work, in fact, it is increasingly required to use these tools. But even in everyday life do not know what a social network or do not know an internet search is likely to marginalize millions of people from society.
Who says these simple but important concepts is the European Commissioner responsible for Information Society Viviane Reding , in a statement released in Brussels, which explains how the 27 EU countries must do more to educating citizens the use of new media, such as social networks or digital TV, to avoid the risks of exclusion. According to the Commissioner, in fact, "people who can not use new media like social networks or digital TV will find it difficult to interact with the world around them and take part."
responsible for the EU should therefore "make sure that everyone is so polite to the media 'are not excluded." "We are turning more to the citizens, but they can respond?" Asks again Reding, adding: "Put them in a position to use the media expertise and creative 'would be a step towards a new generation of democratic participation."
Despite the price of the connection, particularly broadband, have more and more 'to everyone, Brussels stressed that the "24% of EU citizens without Internet at home say they do not have it due to lack of capacity' needed to use it."
