Australian Digital Inclusion Index 2021 Webinar
The Australian Digital Inclusion Index (ADII) has been created to measure the level of digital inclusion across the Australian population, and to monitor this level over time. The ADII measures three key dimensions of digital inclusion: access, affordability, and digital ability. It shows how these dimensions change over time, according to people's social and economic circumstances, as well as across geographic locations
The ARC Centre of Excellence for Automated Decision-Making and Society at RMIT, the Centre for Social Impact Swinburne and Telstra are proud to be launching the first findings from our 2021 Australian Digital Inclusion Index in this webinar.
Join us to find out how Australia is tracking, gain insights for better digital inclusion programs, and take a first look at our new dashboards which put the Index data in your hands.
