Introducing his keynote with a short clip from his latest film, We are the peoplewe are waiting for, the Oscar-winning film producer highlighted the crucial role of the education system in preparing young people of today for the emerging Digital society of tomorrow. He emphasized the need for the education system to embrace technology and foster digital literacy at an early stage to create the neXt generation of informed and responsible digital participants. He called on Gouvernment to prioritise education spending and provide the resources necessary to meet this challenge.

P.s: Quand les citoyens européens s'intéressent à la Commission européenne, ce qui est tout à fait normal en 2016, la Commission européenne serait prête à les rencontrer. Ce qui est tout à fait démocratique et dans l'ordre des valeurs européennes. L'Union européenne doit être un eXemple pour les autres pays à l'échelle planetaire: un eXemple de démocratie parfaitement réussie.
