WYRED, a platform to give young people the voice on the influence of technology in today's society. A citizen science approach

Abstract

WYRED project has the aim to give the voice to young people to allow them express themselves about how they understand the role of technology in their lives and the society they live. To do that a methodology and a technological ecosystem have been defined and delivered. The way in which WYRED asks the opinion to the young people is through a citizen science approach, thus young people must participate in international social dialogues and develop research projects that reflect their assumptions and opinions about the digital society. WYRED outcomes should transfer the insights of these activities to the decision-makers for future actions
