The Digital Youth Consortium is a non-profit organization promoted by the City of Rome bringing together schools, training institutes, local public administration, and ICT companies.

Our activities centre on the world of young people, scholastic training, and new technologies. We provide an operating structure for a working model which contributes to the renewal of the Italian school. We address students, teachers, families, and whoever is interested in improving the rapport between young people and computers, with obvious benefits in the field of didactics, work and productivity. Our activity is carried out mainly within the Rome area, where we carry out studies, research, and activity plans.

We promote experimental projects which begin with computer literacy, and arrive at the development of programmes and content which utilizes the Internet and new technologies as pedagogical-educational tools. We also promote the Global Junior Challenge world competition.

The Digital Youth Consortium offers concrete solutions to the problems which concern the world of work, from youth training to placing in the workplace, as well as the qualification and improvement of resources. For this, alongside the services for those seeking a job, we pay particularly close attention to the supply sector. Companies often need specific skills, and have difficulties finding their way around the wide range of expertise on offer. The selection phase takes up an important part of a company’s resources, but the lack of planning of objectives leads to the drawing up temporary contracts which are of little use to either party. In this context, we step in with a wide choice of services, aimed at Consortium members and designed to improve training efficiency in the workplace.

The objectives

  1. reinforce the use of new technologies in schools and didactic institutions, leading them towards the digital age.
  2. promote the development of innovative educational environments which make use of new multimedia technologies.
  3. ease the placing of young people in the workplace, meeting supply with demand.
  4. identify the most qualified resources and strengthen the efficiency of workplace training.
