EuroMed: Social Technology and Digital Citizenship

The Euro-Mediterranean University Institute of Malta, in cooperation with the Complutense University of Madrid & Consortium and under the patronage of the Anna Lindh Euro-Mediterranean Foundation, sets up the Project Euro-Med: Social Technology  and Digital Citizenship, a digital monitoring observatory available for public and private institutions interested in the area. The Department emerges with a triple goal: promoting the social ownership of the technology in order to contribute to the eradication of the gap in the Mediterranean area and to foster the development of a digital citizenship within the framework of the construction of the concept of Europe. This initiative complements the theoretical-practical training of those attending the Master Information and Knowledge Society < http://www.theoria.eu/master_infocogno >, an academic program offered by the institutions mentioned above, which is an equally valid complementary training for professionals coming from adjacent areas.

The observatory aims at analyzing different initiatives focused on studying the concept of digital citizenship in order to build a Euro-Mediterranean common space, going further euro centrism temptations.  This concept is an essential issue to integrate a community in which the digital gap finds itself at the same time with other cultural, racial, economic and territorial long standing gaps, which undermine the attempts to carry out a deep modernization of the idea of Europe and a cultural and political harmonization between the borders of the Mediterranean. This specific Euro-Mediterranean citizenship is based on the social ownership of the technology, and the consequent impact on democracy, the Human Rights fourth generation, the digital inclusive policies and the electronic governance development. 

The priority given to a monographic issue Nomads. Mediterranean Perspectives is justified for the fact that an Observatory is needed in the geo-strategic and political-cultural region on which the EMUI focuses. We appreciate the institutional and personal support for the proposal, we formally invite you to take part on the project, and we expect to work out a publication according to the high expectations that this issue provokes.
