This podcast episode brings up digital inclusion of citizens as a key aspect of modern democracy. In more and more digitalised states, where public services turn to e-services, citizens need new skills and access to be able take part of public information and public services.

Our guest, PhD student Ahmed Kaharevic, is currently writing a thesis on digital inclusion and participation. Today, he is going to talk about digital inclusion research in general, but also about his own field studies in marginalized Swedish suburbs where he and his colleagues focus on voices that are seldom heard in the debate on digital inclusion.

The podcast series is brought to you by the political science unit at Linköping University and hosted by Helena Iacobaeus, PhD student in political science. For questions or suggestions on topics, e-mail [email protected].
