Report: Digital skills as fundamental as literacy itself
Brussels (BE), July 2025 – On June 24, 2025, Brussels hosted the Digital Education Stakeholder Forum, a landmark event marking four years of progress under the European Commission’s Digital Education Action Plan. With over 250 attendees present in person and more than 1,000 joining online, the Forum gathered a diverse group of educators, policymakers, business leaders, students, and civil society representatives from across Europe.
The event served as both a celebration of achievement and a forward-looking dialogue about the future of digital education in an increasingly AI-driven world.
The Digital Education Stakeholder Forum 2025 was more than a retrospective; it was a call to action. As Europe moves into the next phase of the Digital Education Action Plan, the ideas exchanged in Brussels will shape policies, partnerships, and classrooms for years to come. The message was clear: the future of education is digital, but it must remain human at its core.
