Community Projects. We know that there is a growing digital divide in our community; there are some who are confident and at ease using technology and those who don’t have the access, the skills or understand the benefits. A key goal of the Digital Office is to work to reduce this digital divide in NZ. We enjoy helping, and we enjoy working in the community making a difference.Read More
