Ritiene che esiste un problema con l'accesso e l'acquisizione di informazioni tra i cittadini europei quando cercano di aggiornare le proprie informazioni sull'attuazione delle politiche europee?
Credo che lo Sviluppo Digitale stia imprimendo una grande accellerazione alla possibilità di accedere a tutte le informazioni tra i cittadini europei.
Cosa ne pensa di TheMayor.eu, la piattaforma unificata per i comuni europei e il suo principale obiettivo di rendere i cittadini europei meglio informati su ciò che sta accadendo nell'Unione europea? In che modo il portale può essere utile a un piccolo comune come Castelnovo Bariano?
È un'ottima idea e penso avrà eccellenti risultati.
Quali saranno gli obiettivi principali e i buoni esempi che state progettando di sviluppare?
Attenzione particolare alle infrastrutture scolastiche che rappresentano il luogo dove studieranno e cresceranno le nuove generazioni.
