Digital Week in Latvia
"Digital Week is a national annual information and awareness-raising campaign in Latvia that promotes digital skills and digital transformation. It is coordinated by the Latvian Information and Communication Technology Association (LIKTA) in cooperation with the Ministry of Environmental Protection and Regional Development (VARAM).
The main objective of Digital Week in Latvia is to raise awareness of the importance of digital skills across society and to provide practical support for acquiring new digital skills for various target audiences. Digital Week in Latvia is organised in partnership with European All Digital Weeks.
The annual event features central high-level National Coalition member events and debates, which can be followed live online, as well as numerous regional activities across Latvia: in schools, libraries, non-governmental organisations, municipalities, and businesses. Participants can also test their digital skills through various self-assessment tests and competitions.
