Themes
4 priority themes for sustainable development were identified for the submission of applications. These themes encompass sectors in which digital innovation proves to be a vector of transformation and acceleration of emergence:
TERRITORIES
Not all territories are equal in access to new technologies. Innovation may be a factor of inclusion and reduce digital divides, distances between business centers and landlocked areas. Solutions can help to alleviate territorial disparities, to better live in the densest areas (smart city) to services in the most remote areas.
CITIZENSHIPS
Modernization of public action, democratic transition, new media: digital technology allows the expression of new citizenship and a diversity of opinions. It also raises the issue of cybersecurity, transparency and protection of data, their use for public policy and the common good, which are all challenges.
KNOWLEDGE AND CREATIVITY
From access to tools, to their mastery through capacity building, and their mobilization to serve new forms of creative expressions, digital revolutionizes modes of learning and professional practices. Unlocking the potential for accelerating digital technologies will only be possible if there is a massive diffusion of skills and new modes of collaboration, expression, favorable to open innovation and creativity.
