Progress 100%

IO1-A1: Desk reseach

Qualitative and quantitative data collection in the form of questionnaires has been used to map out the current scene in each partner country. Focus groups has been organised in order to verify-compare the findings of the survey above, and to present recommendations that will be useful and constructive.

IO1-A2: National Indexes

Each partner has prepared a National Report based on a given template by the IO Leader, presenting the state of the art in their country. In order to ensure practicality, the INDEX in the form of questions will be designed so that information can be extracted more easily.

IO1-A3: Comparative Report

The report reflects the state of the art on digital citizenship and the level of knowledge and skills of young people and youth workers. It includes the analysis of tools and methods, the results of the survey for mapping out the provision of opportunities for digital citizenship literacy and the profile of young people in terms of needs and gaps. It is presented in an INDEX form for easier use and reference based on questions and statements, i.e. What good practices at the public sector can be seen in DE for promoting digital citizenship literacy? What are the challenges and needs of young people in LI?
