Digital education and training constitute the narrative thread of the initiatives dedicated to girls and boys.

The Festival Poster is created, thanks to Etna Comics, by Josephine Yole Signorelli, aka Fumettibrutti, the new great Italian comics phenomenon.

The aim of the event is to bring the many digital issues close to the people through an inclusive festival, open to everyone’s participation.
