1.1 Welcome to Grants SA 2024-25 Digital Inclusion Funding Round

Digital inclusion means that all Australians can access and use digital technologies with the skills and confidence required to participate in an ever-increasing on-line world.

  • Digital literacy workshops and initiatives to improve digital skills, safety, and confidence for both on-line and in person training.
