Programme: Recovery and Resilience Plan

Establishment of a Digital Club at “Petar Beron – 1927” Community Center – Apriltsi

The project envisages the creation of a digital club equipped with three fully functional workstations, secured high-speed internet connection (minimum 100 Mbps), and access to modern computer technologies. The club will provide free access to digital resources and training opportunities for the residents of Apriltsi – including students, elderly people, individuals in disadvantaged situations, and representatives of various social groups.

The main objective is to reduce the digital divide, develop key competencies in accordance with the DigComp 2.1 framework, and establish a sustainable educational environment for lifelong learning.

The digital club will serve as an access point to available electronic resources and training programs, including digital skills courses, located on various e-learning platforms, as well as access to databases and platforms for communication with public institutions. The club’s mentor will support individuals – including those in disadvantaged situations, vulnerable groups, the elderly, and others – who lack the necessary digital skills for effective use of a wide range of digital services.

The newly established club will provide broader opportunities for remote participation by the residents of Apriltsi in qualification courses aimed at improving competencies, knowledge, skills, and attitudes related to the professional development of the regional workforce.

The digital club will operate as an open and accessible space for learning, digitization of cultural heritage, and intergenerational exchange of knowledge.
