WA Digital Inclusion Project Online Launch

After months of development and testing, the WA Digital Inclusion Project are officially launching their new project website. This is a major milestone, with the development of a WA Digital Inclusion project website one of the seven key project initiatives designed to support trainers, front line workers and the wider community to access education to improve their digital skills and knowledge, and digital resources to support their digital inclusion journey.

The WA Digital Inclusion Project is a collaboration between leading community service organisations and peak bodies, the WA Government, digital partner NBN Co and major supporter Lotterywest. WACOSS is leading the initiative, and has responsibility for project governance. WACOSS is proud to be a member of the WA Government’s Digital Inclusion Accord. 

Lotterywest has provided a grant of $3.9 million to address the key barriers to digital inclusion. The three-year project commenced on 1 July 2022, and its seven initiatives aim to assist up to 100,000 people in metropolitan Perth and regional centres where partners offer services.
