Looking forward to talking all things #DigitalInclusion with @teresa_corbin4 Kate Fox and @HKyriazopoulos OAM at @SACOSS conference next week. #technology is essential to participation in society and is another cost to people on low incomes - but we can fix the #DigitalDivide!
Next week at the SACOSS Alternative Futures conference, @teresa_corbin4 from Telstra heads up a panel session on digital inclusion with @JessMBWilson, Kate Fox and @HKyriazopoulos OAM. Regos close this Fri Nov 11 tinyurl.com/mr2wj3sv #EndingPoverty22 #DigitalInclusion

This is a really helpful example of the connection and differences between digital literacy, online safety and media literacy. But, to be able to confidently and safely use tech in everyday life - we need all three!!

Such important research on #DigitalInclusion here and great work from the whole team @researchingDI In #GetOnlineWeek and #AntiPovertyWeek it’s essential we realise that families are struggling to keep up and are excluded from essential services like #education
Many Australian families experience digital poverty. We’ve released interim findings from our ARC Linkage project for #GetOnlineWeek & #AntiPovertyWeek showing families are struggling to stay in touch with digital technologies, particularly for education. research.qut.edu.au/dmrc/pro…
