8. Invites governments to design national strategies to develop the digital skills of young
people and create an environment conducive to innovation, entrepreneurship and job
creation in the digital economy by:

a. Supporting the creation of small and medium-sized businesses and
technological start-ups because they play an important role in economic
growth, employment and investment, by reducing the charges and taxes

towards the said companies to facilitate their establishment and their
development,
b. Encouraging the interdependence between civil society and businesses, and

pushing them to collaborate and work together;

9. Calls States to collaborate with technology companies to establish programs

dedicated to supplying schools with digital tools, with an annual subscription fee paid
by the State to the supplier companies in exchange for access to technology in schools;
this technology, which will be primarily intended for school use, would allow young
people who do not have teachers specialised in this field to acquire the basics of

computer science in a very simple way and thus open them to a possible insertion in
the digital world.
