Description
Uma sociedade digital, inclusiva e orientada para o cidadão com oportunidades para todos tem que oferecer as competências para enfrentar os desafios da transição digital. Esta mudança exige políticas específicas de base territorial que privilegiem a diversidade e especificidade geográfica dos seus contextos e populações. É neste sentido que o projeto PerSoParAge pretendeu contribuir apresentando propostas, tendo em vista a definição de políticas territoriais para a inclusão e literacia digital dos territórios envelhecidos do interior do país. A análise do território do interior de Portugal foi realizada com base em métodos quantitativos e qualitativos, através de inquérito por questionário acerca da utilização das TIC aplicado à população com mais de 55 anos dos distritos de Castelo Branco, Guarda e Portalegre. A amostra compreendeu 408 indivíduos e os dados foram alvo de análise estatística descritiva e análise de conteúdo. Os resultados indicam que as populações mais envelhecidas, com baixo nível de escolaridade e residentes em zonas rurais, têm dificuldades de acesso às redes digitais, reduzida utilização de dispositivos tecnológicos e da internet, bem como níveis significativos de exclusão e iliteracia digital. Urge investir a nível digital nos territórios do interior do país, desenvolvendo-os, e nas pessoas mais envelhecidas, capacitando-as e incluindo-as digitalmente.
Abstract: A digital, inclusive, and citizen-oriented society with opportunities for all must offer the skills to face the challenges of the digital transition. This change requires specific territorial-based policies that emphasize the diversity and geographic specificity of their contexts and populations. It is in this sense that the PerSoParAge project intended to contribute by presenting proposals, with a view to defining territorial policies for the inclusion and digital literacy of ageing territories in the interior of the country. The analysis of the territory of the interior of Portugal was carried out based on quantitative and qualitative methods, through a questionnaire survey on the use of ICT applied to the population over 55 years of age in the districts of Castelo Branco, Guarda and Portalegre. The sample comprised 408 individuals and the data were subjected to descriptive statistical analysis and content analysis. The results indicate that older populations, with a low level of education and residing in rural areas, have difficulties in accessing digital networks, reduced use of technological devices and the internet, as well as significant levels of exclusion and digital illiteracy. There is an urgent need to invest digitally in the interior of the country, developing them, and in the most aged people, training them and including them digitally
