By being an active stakeholder member of the
ET2020 Working Group on digital skills and
competences (WG DSC).
The ET2020 working groups are a mechanism for exchange
of good practices between EU countries and for providing
input into the European Commission’s initiatives in the field
of education and training. Their primary aim is to facilitate
exchange of experience between education ministries of
Member States, though stakeholders such as ALL DIGITAL,
EuropeanSchoolnet, ECDL Foundation, Lifelong learning
platform, EDEN and other bodies. The Working Group is
a channel both to influence the EU policy agenda, and to
connect with policy experts at national level. ALL DIGITAL
has been an active member of the Group, presenting our
members’ role in, for example, bridging the gender gap in
ICT.

Commissioner Navracsics’s cabinet, Rodrigo Ballester. The
second was with the members of the ET2020 DSC working
group.
