Overarching
theme for
EuroDIG2021
In 2021, the
EuroDIG
programme will
be under the
theme „Into
Europe‘s
Digital
Decade“,
honouring the
many processes
on the
continent (EU
and
beyond) that
contribute to
new digital
regulations,
standards and
norms for
the upcoming
years. EuroDIG
aims to be a
multi-stakeholder
meeting
ground where
policy makers,
technical
community, the
private sector
and civil
society can
discuss and
exchange in an
open,
bottom-up
manner.
The
draft
programme for
this year‘s
meeting (28-30
June) is open
for comments
until February
26.

2021 –
CfA results
The call for
applications
for this
year‘s youth
track has
ended,
and over 80
people between
the ages of 18
and 30 have
applied.
Applicants are
based in 27
different
countries, but
a third of
submissions
came from
Italy, our
host this
year. As was
the case in
previous years
as well,
female
applicants are
in a slight
majority
(circa
55%). Most
applications
stated that
the theme they
are interested
most is
Human Rights
and Data
Protection,
with
Sustainability
and
Environment
on second
place.
The
YOUthDIG 2021
Org Team, which
consists of
former
participants, is
now
tasked to select
around 30
YOUthDIGers, who
will have the
chance to
participate in
webinars, expand
their network
and knowledge on
their work and
research topics,
and present
their messages
in EuroDIG.
