How can we tackle disinformation? How can we ensure a value-based holistic all-society approach that takes soft skills and wellbeing into consideration? How can we ensure and uphold European sovereignty?

The European programme also includes Online Deep Dive sessions that address a specific topic relevant to the digital transition of the Social Economy ecosystem, combining theoretical insights with interactive and experience-sharing sessions. The aim is to support European social enterprises in unlocking the potential of data and technology for social impact, policy influence, and inclusive innovation, as well as offering a platform for networking. These Deep Dives build on topics from the DO Impact Learning Journey, introduce relevant digital tools, and spark exchange among participants.
