abstract = {The rise of digital technologies has transformed society, but unevenly, creating a digital divide. Digital illiteracy persists, exacerbating inequalities and questioning the myth of 'digital natives', which assumes that young people naturally possess advanced digital skills. In reality, there are significant variations among young people in terms of digital skills. This is why it is crucial to reassess this concept and examine the barriers to accessing technology. This article highlights the need to put in place concrete strategies to improve the use of technology and prepare a workforce adapted to digital innovations. In this respect, education appears to be essential for building an equitable digital culture and developing the skills needed to prepare young people to use technologies competently and creatively, for both their personal and professional development.},
