lpv:spoken text	"Madam President, there can be no e-democracy without digital inclusion, especially inclusion of vulnerable people. This requires ensuring a fair, inclusive, transparent and safe access, and use of the internet for all. Digital inclusion also means closing the gap between rural and urban areas in terms of internet access. There is indeed significant contrast in broadband speeds in rural and urban areas in many Member States, and this presents a severe disadvantage to rural areas and puts at risk the social, cultural and economic life in the communities there. We are also asked to prepare young people to a fast-changing world which we cannot yet imagine, but one thing we know is that this world will be more and more digitised and connected, and that is why digital skills and media literacy are key. But here, again, it should not limit itself to learning about the tools and technologies; it should aim at equipping individuals with the creative and critical thinking and digital curiosity necessary for them to become not only users of technology, but active citizens in connected societies."@en1
