Sažetak
Within the youth field, social inclusion is a concept better understood than digitalisation, because of the long-term commitment of European institutions and youth organisations to this topic, which encompasses a broad range of sub-topics, such as employment, education, employability, health or participation. Digitalisation, on the other hand, is a fairly recent topic – to society at large and to the youth sector in particular. It refers to the use of digital tools and opportunities, but also to the social phenomenon of the increasing importance of digital technology, mass communication and online spaces and communities. Digitalisation has spontaneously made its way into youth work, and its presence and use in the youth sector has grown significantly over the last few years. Now accepted as part of the sector’s practice, it has often been assumed that digital tools offer a panacea for reaching out to include more young people, especially those ones considered hard to reach because of different social, geographical or economic conditions, disabilities, physical constraints or cultural barriers. Yet social inclusion, as it relates to the digital world, is about more than just access to technology and can be considered a complex, multidimensional concept.
