Digital inclusion is not just about technology. It is about people, connection and the relationships that help communities thrive.

Following the launch of the WA Digital Inclusion Project’s new report, Why it Matters: A Digital Inclusion Storytelling Collection, we are pleased to offer an online version of the event for those who were unable to attend in person.

This session will share stories from community members and service providers across Western Australia, highlighting the personal, social and community impacts of digital inclusion and exclusion.

Developed in partnership with Two Roads and funded by Lotterywest, the collection captures voices from metropolitan, regional and remote communities and explores why digital inclusion matters for work, learning and life.

Join us as we:

  • Launch the digital version of the storytelling collection
  • Share key themes and insights from communities across Western Australia
  • Explore what digital inclusion means for individuals, communities and service providers
  • Discuss opportunities for government, philanthropy and the community sector to support a more connected and inclusive future

Whether you work in government, the community sector, education, philanthropy, libraries, Community Resource Centres, or are simply interested in digital inclusion, we invite you to join the conversation.

 

This webinar will be AUSLAN interpreted.
