PEOPLE SUBPROJECTSHARE IT

SHAREIT subproject, has been approved in the framework of PEOPLE project sub-objective 4: “Social and e-inclusion”. SHAREIT is co-financed by Interreg IVC Programme.

SHARE IT

Connecting with society involves keeping up with society's increasing complexity and the growing importance of ICT. The acceleration of individual agency and possibilities to organize in peer groups is growing exponentially since the world wide web and the mobile phone. This is coupled by demographic changes in both overall nature (ageing) and in the ethnic rapid changing of the inner cities in Europe. In a paradoxical way youth is both empowered by new media and new technologies and disempowered growing up in inner cities facing bleak job prospects, discrimination and the lure of the illegal. SHAREIT aims to promote cohesion through making available the most innovative and performing ICT tools, courses and insights into technology to the socially and economically vulnerable groups.
