In Juanary we set up 15 Digital Inclusion Points (DIPs) on Sierra de Guadarrama Adult Education Center (AEC)(@cepasierradeguadarrama), where we have started out on a digital literacy course with a group of beginners students.
From the first moment, the participants showed us their enthusiasm and interest on learning the use of the computer, seeing in this an opportunity to get on better in their day-to-day. Moreover, TechPeopleCare methodology is designed with a clear scope, practical and accessible. It also helped their comprehension out in the language thanks to the clarity and simplicity of the content.
On the image, our colleague Vito performs a demonstration to the group on how the course works. Assisting this way their first contact with the platform.
Further on, we will share new images of this rewarding experience.

On March 25th, 2025, We had a party at the municipal library María Moliner in Velilla de San Antonio to turn in completion certificates to our RETOMadrID ‘s programme participants. During the event stood out the compromise of the centre to the objectives of the project. By means of Digital Inclusion Point (DIP) and the methodology of TechPeopleCare, the centre has played a keyrole in teaching basic digital skills and in supplying digital inclusion to this municipality. This event outlines it’s endlessly support to the project and people’s disposition to work together with to lessen digital gap.
During the event, several local authorities were present including Dª. Yolanda Rollón Ferigal City, Councillor for Culture and Social Services; Dª Pep Gil, Councillor for Education, Human Resources, Modernisation, Electronic Administration and European Funds and Dº. Joaquín Panadero Rubio, Councillor for Housing, Planification, Energetic Transition and City Projects. In addition, representatives of RetoMadrID also attended the gala: Susana Muñoz Hernández, head of TEDECO, Principal Researcher and professor at UPM; Sergio López Lorente, Local Coordinator; and Irene Begara Carpio, Contact Manager.
International guests also showed up: including Father Giuseppe Melona from the Superior Studies Centre in Don Bosco de Maputo (Mozambique) and Antonio Goba Jr., head and institutional exchange and internationalization manager at the same institution that was in a Erasmus+ visit to Universidad Politécnica of Madrid. They got the opportunity to get to know about the project and to look into what a Digital Inclusion Point is.
The event counted with the assistance of 16 participants, who recieved their diploma as an award of their effort in the adquisition of basic digital skills through the use of Digital Inclusion Points and TechPeopleCare’s methodology.
