The state is digitizing services for citizens. However, the total imposition of 'digital' and the absence of analogue forms of receiving services might lead to discrimination and digital inequality. Across the world, cases are already emerging where the most vulnerable populations, i.e. the elderly, people with physical disabilities and serious illnesses, the poor and migrants, are exposed.

Discussion points:
• Why is accessibility important — both for ordinary citizens and for people with special needs?
• How to overcome the digital inequality?
• What should be the real rather than declared client-centricity of public services?
