Examples to develop these skills:
A practical example of how to find solutions to complex problems related to active citizenship using digital technology is addressing online misinformation. Online misinformation can lead to mistrust among citizens, polarization, and even undermine democracy. Addressing this problem requires a multidisciplinary approach and the use of various digital technologies. 
One way to address this issue is by promoting media literacy and critical thinking among citizens. This can be achieved by creating educational programs, disseminating information on fact-checking, and encouraging citizens to consult different sources before drawing conclusions. 
Promoting digital literacy can also help reduce the spread of online misinformation. 
Another solution is using artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms to detect online misinformation. Companies like Facebook and Google have already taken steps to use such technologies to combat the spread of online misinformation. 
Finally, it is important to invest in research and development of new digital technologies to prevent the spread of online misinformation and improve online safety. This can be achieved, among other things, by supporting research into technologies such as blockchain, which can help secure online information and reduce the spread of misinformation.
﻿
By finding innovative solutions to complex problems related to active citizenship using digital technology, we can all work towards a safer and better online environment for everyone.
