Digital Inclusion for Everyone in South Tyrol
SwapToLearn connects people who donate devices with those who need them. Together, we learn how technology enriches our lives.
Three ways
How SwapToLearn works
Discover the three pillars of our initiative
Receive
Get a computer and receive support
Anyone who needs a computer not only receives the device but also support to get started.
Donate
Pass on devices that still work
Do you have an old computer you no longer use? Give it a new life.
Learn
Develop and share skills together
In our workshops, you’ll learn how to use your device and pass on your knowledge.

Receive a computer and take control
Anyone who needs a computer doesn’t just get a device. You’ll receive support so you can understand it, use it, and navigate the digital world with confidence. It’s more than just technology—it’s about trust.

Donate devices and make change possible
Many people have laptops or computers at home that they no longer need. These devices can help others participate in digital life. Your donation is more than just hardware; it’s an opportunity for someone.
Workshops
Learning by doing and sharing
Our workshops are places where people come together to repair devices, install systems, and learn from one another. Two or more people work together—one does, one explains. This fosters genuine understanding and mutual support.
Moments that matter
Real people, real change
Questions
Here you’ll find answers to what matters to you.
