Our ambition is to meet the challenges posed by digitalization by focusing on identifying the practical skills necessary to reduce the impact of digital techniques on the environment and in particular on energy consumption. The main objective of the project is to support trainers and adult education centers with new knowledge and practical skills focused on energy efficiency in the use of digital techniques by following "The Green Path". The project focuses on energy efficiency and reducing the environmental footprint in the long-term learning process and also aims to: - promote social inclusion, civic engagement and attract and provide lifelong learning opportunities to local communities in Bulgaria and France through the use of digital technologies; - enable and motivate people of different ages to develop and improve their own skills as well as the key skills necessary for sustainable development and to cope with the consequences caused by Covid-19.
Digital technologies are our future. The European Commission has made it a priority to optimize connectivity and digitalize Europe. A real step forward in this area is the Declaration of Digital Rights and Principles for the Benefit of All which should guide digital transformation in the EU. At the same time, by supporting the draft declaration on rights and essential principles for digital transformation, we should reflect at all levels on the impact of digital technologies on the climate. According to the latest statistics, digital consumption represented between 8 and 12% of total electricity consumption in France. Three-quarters of consumption goes to devices that equip individuals and professionals, or around 40 TWh. In 2016, 39% of adults aged 18 to 64 declared having followed training for professional purposes during the year. As training professionals, we question the impact of digital technology and its mastery by teachers and CFAs using digital technology. If this impact is negative, how can we, as training organizations, fight against climate change?
