Community Connectivity

Ensuring that all Australians have the capabilities, networks and tools to participate in the benefits of the information economy is a major priority. Supporting strategies focus on individuals, communities and sectors where additional effort is required to achieve wider uptake and effective use of technology. Specifically, this work relates to:

  • Developing the networks and capabilities needed by people living in regional communities, Indigenous Australians, older Australians, people with disabilities and others facing economic or social barriers to participation in the information economy; and
  • Strengthening collaboration and capabilities in nonprofit organisations and key sectors to facilitate their participation in the information economy.
