Run by the Impact/UMIJ association, Mobilo'web is comprised of a mobile multimedia unit equipped with laptop computers and a web portal. This is a shared service which seeks to provide a solution to the challenge posed by the digital divide, by focusing on usage rather than infrastructure. In doing so it seeks to ensure that everyone can benefit from IT resources regardless of their age, social class or the area in which they live. Mobilo'web proactively brings information technology to those who have little access or no access to the information society (young people, elderly people, adults undergoing social and vocational integration, literacy groups, etc.). Mobilo'web was designed to be incorporated in various projects deployed throughout the region. Among other things this includes «street Internet» initiatives in the Mistral district of Grenoble, the creation of a blog with highly dependent elderly people at Echirolles, or the preparation of a slideshow in Pont-de-Claix on the theme of humanitarian activities in Morocco. In 2011, 17 projects accounted for 200 half days of activities and benefited more than 410 people. thématique "Réhabilitation urbaineurbaine / rurale" thématique "Réhabilitation / rurale" THE «COMPETITIVENESS» AND «CONVERGENCE» OBJECTIVES 6% 7% 6% 7% € 102.1 M € 102.1 M € 303 M € 303 M Percentage of the total ERDF programming for the Percentage of the total ERDF programming for the competitiveness objective devoted to the themeto the theme competitiveness objective devoted of "Urban/rural "Urban/rural regeneration" of regeneration" Percentage of the total ERDF programming for the Percentage of the total ERDF programming for the convergenceconvergence objective devoted to the theme of objective devoted to the theme of "Urban/rural "Urban/rural regeneration" regeneration" The European Social Fund was involved in this theme through six projects, carried out in Guadeloupe. On the other hand the ERDF was involved to a greater extent in this theme: 1,114 projects were performed between 2007 and 2013 in the field of urban or rural regeneration, i.e. approximately 160 projects per year, with average ERDF support per project of €360,000. In metropolitan France, the average amount for the 997 projects supported was 2 ½ times lower than in the outermost regions (an average of €300,000 of ERDF funds for each of the 997 projects in metropolitan France compared to €846,000 for the 117 projects in the overseas territories). In metropolitan France, the theme of urban/rural regeneration accounted for 6% of the total ERDF programming for the 2007-2013 period, i.e. €303 million. In the outermost regions, 7% of the total ERDF funds were mobilised for this theme, i.e. approximately €102.1 million. Looking more particularly at urban regeneration and particularly the urban aspect, this aspect of the ERDF totalled approximately €535 million over the 2007-2013 period and allowed for the implementation of 65 integrated urban projects (IUP) in 19 regions (15 regions in metropolitan France and 4 overseas départements). Further analysis reveals a wide spread of projects in the urban field (economic activities, urban planning, the environment, employment, facilities and local services, etc.) and a leverage effect exceeding that of the other projects deployed in the regional programmes covered by the cohesion policy : €1 of ERDF funding generated approximately €2.25 of public spending. Over and above the specific measures devoted to the IUP, the ERDF operational programmes contributed to urban development in the wider sense thanks to contributions of approximately €500 million (sums programmed in early 2012). It has been estimated that in all, the 2007-2013 programming generated more than €1 billion of ERDF funding which was devoted to social cohesion and improving the attractiveness of urban areas. http://www.europe-urbain.fr/index.php/documentation/item/la-dimension-urbaine-de-la-politique-europeenne-de-cohesion-2007-2013-analysede-la-contribution-des-po-au-developpement-des-territoires-urbains?category_id=16 3 Percenta Europea theme o http://www.europe-urbain.fr/index.php/documentation/item/la-dimension-urbaine-de-la-politique-europeenne-de-cohesion-2007-2013-analyse
