Digital Inclusion Statement
Eliminating technological inequalities and creating digital opportunities for all children
Our Digital Equity Vision
Our Mission
At 3DMoose, we are committed to bridging the digital divide and ensuring every child can access our maker projects regardless of their economic status, geographic location, technological infrastructure or digital literacy level.
Digital inclusion is not limited to providing internet access. It is a comprehensive approach that supports the meaningful, safe and effective use of technology. Our approach encompasses a wide spectrum of support from access to technological tools to digital literacy, from safe internet use to creative problem solving.
Our statement is aligned with UN Sustainable Development Goal 4 (quality education) and Goal 10 (reduced inequalities). We also act in accordance with the European Commission's Digital Education Action Plan 2021-2027 principles.
