SMART 2024 – WORLDS COLLIDING
2024-04-17 00:00
The past 1 year has been about the rise of artificial intelligence. During this time, we wanted and uncleaned to lay the foundations of a hybrid technological revolution, and the vision of a generation that will be born into a semi-human, semi-artificial world can already be a source of thought now.
AI will continue to grow in 2024, slowly embedding or at least influencing all other (digital) industries that we have been working on the SMART stage for many years. Health, fintech, telecommunications, cybersecurity or even sustainability are all areas that can no longer be said this year without mentioning AI.
Therefore, the next period will certainly not be about AI itself, but rather about AI’s ‘conflict’ with other industries and other digital technologies. The most important of these is sustainability versus artificial intelligence, where we will be able to watch an unmovable object and an unstoppable force in a separate “ring”. The conflict between AI accelerating at unsustainable speeds and a sustainable approach involving more and more people has been crystallised already in the first year of AI. A collision is inevitable, the question is only how strong the impact will be and whether we will look close or remotely.
Sustainability is just one example of many: the ‘conflict’ of AI with other worlds, and the globality of technologies in this sense, will soon be insurmountable. Already in 2023, digital players were placed in a metaphoric melting crucible under which AI kept the fire. It is not a question that we will soon have to step up in the same digitalisation mass, both at individual, company and social level; and it is our collective responsibility to swim down the surface after the jump and not to immerse.
This year’s SMART is responsible for providing a life jacket and protective goggles, making evicks in the digital seas and disaster tourism safer.

Unwrapping the Digital Divide Episode 4: Art and digital (in)equity: How can art be leveraged for digital inclusion?
2024-05-07 08:00 - 17:00
On May 7, 2024, DigiCo is hosting the fourth webinar of their series ‘Unwrapping the Digital Divide’. Their fourth episode will focus on: ‘Art and digital (in)equity: How can art be leveraged for digital inclusion?‘
In this 40-minute Lightning Talk, DigiCo invites Dr Alicja Pawluczuk (HYSTERA) to discuss the roles of [participatory] art and experiential learning in digital equity community practice and research. Join the event to explore the intersection of art and digital equity. The event will run from 12:00 to 12:40pm CEST and is free to attend, but registration is required.
About the speaker
With over a decade of experience in using art for digital inclusion and literacy, Dr Pawluczuk will share her work as a founder and educator at Digital Beez, her community artistic practice at Hystera and Endo Violence Collective , and as a researcher and curator of the IN+ ART Iterations at Leeds University’s IN+ Network. This presentation intends to explore if/how artistic approaches can , challenge, reshape, and enrich our understanding of digital inclusivity. Grounded in the IN+ Principles, Dr Pawluczuk will argue that art spaces should be focused on “not on getting digital equity “right” by conventional standards, but rather on collectively delving into alternative ways of experiencing it” (IN+ART). By uncovering and engaging with the subtle and often overlooked aspects of digital [in]equity, Dr Pawluczuk aims to showcase the power of art in creating a more inclusive digital landscape.
About DigiCo
The Digital Collective is a non-profit organisation advocating for the digital inclusion of marginalised communities. DigiCo works to enable digital inclusion at three levels:

Developing tech-enabling solutions for digital inclusion: designing solutions that bring people closer to the labour market through access to lifelong learning, for example

Technology in employment – A step towards inclusion
2024-05-11 10:00 - 13:00 | Ljubljana

The ALL DIGITAL Weeks 2024 international launch event titled “What’s next for Digital Skills? Beyond the European Year of Skills and the European Elections” is taking place on 14 May (14.30 to 17.30) at the Microsoft Technology Center, in Rue Montoyer 51, Brussels.
This year, the campaign is focused on digital democracy, civic participation and social responsibility, the impact of artificial intelligence, and digital skills for employment, entrepreneurship, and innovation. Digital competences continue to increase in importance for all European citizens and people living in Europe, especially in terms of digital media and information literacy, cybersecurity and wellbeing.
More and more jobs require digital skills, and beneficiaries must be equipped with the necessary digital skills to access essential services – from health care over housing to education and social welfare – if they are to be provided sustainably and efficiently.
