Denmark’s coding kids | IT-Branchen

55% of young people in Europe will end up working in jobs that do not exist today. To help them prepare for a digital career, the Danish IT Industry Association runs coding classes for children. The association has coached over 7,000 children to develop innovative digital solutions by teaching them to build their own websites and apps.

With the pandemic accelerating our collective online shift, digital technologies have been a lifeline for many – allowing us to keep learning, working, and staying connected to what really matters. Amidst the dramatic setback caused by the global crisis, many individual stories of strength and positive innovation have emerged.

“Digitally Enlightened” wants to shed a light on these extraordinary innovators – big and small – that, through the power of digital, are driving our continent forward and helping ensure our future is sustainable and inclusive.

The 13 mini-films making up the “Digitally Enlightened” series have been produced for DIGITALEUROPE by BBC StoryWorks Commercial Productions, the commercial content studio of BBC Global News, in collaboration with DIGITALEUROPE members and partners.
