DrAlicja Pawluczuk
I'm a digital inclusion/justice thinker, doer, and creative maker. I currently work as an ICTD Research Fellow at the United Nations University, a Strategic Consultant in defining Digital Transformation at SALTO-YOUTH, and a researcher at the EU-Council of Europe Youth Partnership.

Since 2010, I have researched, co-designed, facilitated, and evaluated digital inclusion and education programmes internationally. I have experience working both on high-level projects and publications (e.g. United Nations University, ITU, EQUALS-EU, Council of Europe) as well as smaller-scale community-led projects (e.g. digital literacy workshops, digital rights).

I aim to cultivate authenticity, tolerance for ambiguity, critical thinking, and empathy in my work.

My knowledge and practice are not set in stone, but continue to evolve and respond to the ongoing changes related to digital transformation. My work is grounded in democratic, participatory, experimental, and interactive methodologies (both online and offline).

The key areas of my expertise include digital inclusion,  gender digital inclusion, digital youth work, digital and data literacy. I have a track record of peer-reviewed publications and cross-disciplinary public engagement activities. I aim to share outcomes of my work in an accessible and fun formats (e.g. videos, infographics).
