Digital Youth Month 2025: A committed edition for youth connected to their culture and identity
Presented by Montreal Digital Spring, the 7th edition of the Digital Youth Month 2025 was held under the theme “Your Culture, Your Identity!” from February 1 to 28. With the involvement of 32 collaborators, a total of 147 online resources and 108 activities were offered to help develop the digital skills and knowledge of young people across Quebec. Contributors also supported the campaign by encouraging youth to reflect on the impact of digital technologies on cultural content discovery, creation, and online diversity.
Among the flagship projects of this 7th edition, the third season of the podcast series Empreinte numérique, produced in collaboration with Télé-Québec en classe and the BAnQ, stood out by giving a voice to high school students, artists, and experts. To address the challenges of cultural discoverability and youth representation, it is essential to foster civic participation and promote a digital education that is critical, creative, and inclusive.
The episodes are available on the Digital Youth Month website, Télé-Québec en classe, and other streaming platforms.
A big thank you to all the partners, collaborators, and participants who made Digital Youth Month 2025 a success! It is thanks to your commitment that this event continues to exist, grow, and reach more and more young people.
