Telstra's Connected Communities Program

The program will support community-led efforts that embrace new technology and improve digital literacy or digital capability.

The program seeks to foster: 

• Liveable communities that have digital capability, and help to equip individuals with the skills to live, learn and work in a digital society
• Sustainable communities that are diverse and inclusive, planning for the health, wellbeing, and prosperity of their people and the planet
• Resilient communities that are well prepared and socially connected when disaster strikes with the ability to renew and recover together.
