inDigiMOB is about improving digital inclusion for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in remote Northern Territory communities. It does this by forming partnerships with communities and local organisations and making available a suite of resources that communities can take advantage of according to their needs.
Emphasising informal, peer-to-peer learning which is project based, inclusive, responsive to community wishes and respects age, gender, and cultural protocols, inDigiMOB are addressing some of the key obstacles that they have identified, including:
- Accessibility of internet services, including knowledge available in remote communities and blackspot issues.
- Awareness of issues including limited digital training, on-ground support and mentors, and cyber safety issues.
- Affordability of services.
- Appropriateness of internet take-up programs, including lack of language-based training, culturally appropriate training spaces, and delivery modes.
