The Fondazione Mondo Digitale and Poste Italiane join forces to promote the digital literacy of elder citizens, explains Gianluca Nicoletti in a long article published today on the “La Stampa” daily entitled “Nonni su Internet”, Poste italiane dà lezione agli over sessanta.
In July, postal offices in Rome, Naples, Palermo, Asti, Mantova and Ascoli Piceno will open “digital literacy” classrooms managed by school students and coordinated by an expert teacher.
Over the course of thirteen editions, Grandparents on the Internet has already employed knowledge volunteers outside of schools, as in the internet corners in elder centres, but it's the first time that tutors will systematically provide lessons outside of schools to strengthen the universal and inclusive service mission of Poste Italiane. And accelerate the implementation process of the Italian Digital Agenda.
