In Nice, workshops to help the elderly with digital tools

We are not all equal when it comes to disease. Not even in the face of technology. Before you can show it, you can download the Health Pass first. However, for some, especially the elderly, the necessary digital agility is not necessary. Workshops set up by the municipal office for seniors in Nice in the Alps-Maritime target them.

With a little help, the practitioners overcome one obstacle after another: connect, retrieve the certificate, and save their QR code on the phone. Not easy, but at the end of the day, it is relief. “The difficulty is that it calls for ideas, a QR code is a new language, a new definition, it is difficult for them to understand. This requires additional educational effort on our part, the idea being to make their lives easier.“, Coach-facilitator James Mela explains.
