The fourth Digital Inclusion Day was held this year... over two days. It was marked by the award of the Digital Inclusion Prize to four players. You can find out more about their projects here.

The "Digital Doheem" project, initiated by GoldenMe and the Stëftung Hëllef Doheem (SHD), aims to help older people who are losing their independence to use digital technologies. Unlike existing training courses, which require people to be on the move, this programme offers individual support at home. Volunteers trained by GoldenMe accompany SHD customers, mainly people aged over 75, who receive care at home.

The "Éisleker Koppen" project aims to improve seniors' digital skills through an interactive board game inspired by the Oesling region. Seniors can familiarise themselves with digital tools, learn good practice in cyber security and better understand the challenges of online media. The game also encourages intergenerational links. It is aimed at people aged 50 and over, particularly from the seven communes in the north of Luxembourg.

This project aims to create a Starter Pack, a training module in Luxembourgish for people with intellectual disabilities, cognitive disorders or autism. It is aimed at teenagers and adults aged between 12 and 45 who have a smartphone or tablet, and aims to increase their independence in everyday and professional life. The module will include adapted teaching resources (audio booklets, explanatory videos, etc.) and will cover essential skills such as creating an e-mail account, using a search engine, installing applications and configuring a smartphone.

The "KI-Léierbud" project aims to make artificial intelligence accessible to all, overcoming the barriers of age, education and resources. Through an educational web platform, it offers a progressive and intuitive approach to discovering AI through interactive lessons, quizzes and an experimentation zone with generative AI tools. The backend will enable interactive discussions to be led by autonomous agents (chatbots, voicebots, avatars) with distinct linguistic and psychological capabilities. These agents will be able to tell stories, illustrate and generate comic strips or produce printable books.
