Like Portugal, our aim is to become a digitally competitive nation where no citizen is left behind. MBOpinions READ:
Last 2022, I had the chance to meet with Minister Bernardo Ivo Cruz, Portugal’s Secretary of State for International Trade and Foreign Investment, and Ambassador Maria Joao Lopes-Cardoso. We’re hoping to forge digital cooperation so that we can learn from their experience and best practices.
The first pillar is focused on ensuring that no Portuguese citizen is left behind in the country’s digital transition. Thus, digital inclusion and empowerment is a priority. The country’s strategies include technologies integration in the basic and secondary education curricula. They aim to provide children and young people with the necessary learning opportunities and tools for their full personal and professional fulfillment.
They also have an Adult Digital Inclusion Program aimed at training adult citizens in basic digital skills to ensure digital inclusion. This will reduce the number of Portuguese citizens who have yet to take advantage of the benefits of digitization in various fields, such as access to information and use of public digital services.
One of their programs is the Digital Innovation Hubs, which are collaborative networks that include specific digital competence centers, with the purpose of disseminating and promoting the adoption of advanced digital technologies by companies, particularly SMEs, through the development, testing and experimentation of these technologies.
