Artists and designers are invited to create posters or short films on digital citizenship topics as part of the Council of Europe’s 2025 European Year of Digital Citizenship Education. The challenges brought about the rapid proliferation of disruptive technologies like ChatGPT have further emphasized the importance of the critical issues addressed by Digital Citizenship Education (DCE). Topics such as disinformation, digital literacy, cyberbullying, digital etiquette, online hate, speech, tolerance, personal data usage, and digital security are among the fundamental challenges individuals face in today’s digital world. This situation underscores the urgent need to intensify efforts and investments in Digital Citizenship Education to effectively address these evolving threats. This competition is organized within the framework of the “European Year of Digital Citizenship Education 2025”, an initiative led by the Council of Europe, designated by the Ministers of Education at the 26th session of the Standing Conference of the Ministers of Education in September 2023. The European Year 2025 aims to highlight the value of digital citizenship education in shaping the digital future, helping build inclusive and democratic societies. Through the development of core competences including key skills, values, attitudes and knowledge, citizens can learn, connect, engage and thrive together in the digitally enriched world.
