Digital Inclusion in WA Blueprint launch

With a mission to bridge the digital divide and create greater opportunities for all Western Australians, the McGowan Government launched The Digital Inclusion in WA Blueprint, an outline of strategic approaches and key initiatives to make WA a digitally inclusive State. The launch, which was hosted at illuminance Solutions office in Perth on Friday 16 December 2022, was made possible through the collaboration between the WA Government and West Tech Assemblage.

Our biggest training yet!

Technology is advancing at a rapid pace, and some groups in our community are being left behind. A digital divide is emerging, which makes equal treatment and opportunity even more challenging to achieve. As a Gold Partner of one of the biggest technology actors in the world, Microsoft, we take responsibility for this digital divide. On 14 July 2021, we went to the Waalitj Foundation to train Microsoft 365 programs to the mentors in the Deadly Sista Girlz education program.
