What is Digital Inclusion?

The WA Digital Inclusion Project works to address the three key barriers to digital inclusion

Digital technologies and the internet have become an essential part of modern life in a very short space of time. While there are many benefits to digital technologies, they have also unfortunately left many people behind.

The WA Digital Inclusion Project aims to support people to access the benefits of technology.

Stories from the Community

This program has opened doors for women who had little access to opportunities, helping them move beyond isolation into education, employment, and entrepreneurship. It has been rewarding to see their confidence and sense of possibility grow through this initiative

The scholarship program served to equip me with more confidence … the fact that we had the luxury of being escorted multiple times through the somewhat foreign lands of technology, proved to be a saving a grace for this course. Several patient facilitators and on-site peer workers ensured I always felt supported. Thank you very much Digital Inclusion Crew.
