Children’s rights in a digital world
Children’s rights in a digital world
New evidence from ySKILLS determines whether gaining digital literacy facilitates the realisation of children's rights. It also examines the opposite possibility: is there evidence from ySKILLS research that the insufficient realisation of children's rights impedes children in gaining digital literacy?
Sonia Livingstone presented how digital skills and literacy represent both a valued outcome of realising a wide range of children’s rights.
"A multitude of structural factors, both enabling and obstructing children's digital literacy and their ability to use it, must continue to hold a prominent place on the agendas of national and European stakeholders. This is essential for the fulfillment of children's rights in the context of our digital world."
