The KZgunea program, the Basque government’s digital inclusion project, is analyzed as a paradigmatic case of the evolution of government programs and policies in favour of an adequate level of digital literacy that allows individuals to fully participate in all fields of today’s increasingly digitized society. This case study analyses the different interpretations made of the concepts of Digital Age with a view to clarifying their appropriate use according to the situations to be studied, understood as an intellectualized evolution of the realities and experiences lived by individuals and society.
