Being a digital citizen is not simply about knowing how to use technology, but about understanding it and engaging with it critically, ethically, and creatively

We live surrounded by screens, social media platforms, algorithms, and artificial intelligence. However, using these tools every day does not necessarily mean that we understand how they work, what decisions they make on our behalf, or how they influence our identity, relationships, and view of the world.

Roxana Morduchowicz is a renowned Argentine specialist in youth culture, media, artificial intelligence, and education. Through her research with UNESCO, she has examined how young people construct their identities, access information, build relationships, and participate in an increasingly digital society.

Drawing on this experience, Morduchowicz reminds us that age or familiarity with a screen does not automatically make us digital citizens. To participate fully in today’s world, we need to understand how technology works, question the information we receive, and reflect on the consequences of our actions online.

Being a digital citizen means using technology with judgment, creativity, and responsibility. It is not only about mastering tools, but also about learning to make conscious decisions, protect our identity, respect others, and recognize both the opportunities and risks of the digital environment.
