Who Are We?
We are a charitable trust improving computer access and skills in our community since 2010 with hubs in Marton and Rātana. We support digital inclusion for all and address the four elements of motivation, access, skills and trust.
- To be motivated, NZers must understand how the internet and digital technology can help them and have a reason to engage.
- NZers need access to digital devices, software and content they can afford, including connectivity, affordability and accessibility.
- NZers need skills ie. the know-how to use the internet and digital technology in ways that are appropriate and beneficial.
- NZers need to trust in the internet and online services. They need digital literacy to manage their information and avoid scams and harmful information.
