Digital Equity Coalition Aotearoa

The digital inclusion community is doing incredible work building bridges across the digital divide in Aotearoa. Digital equity work is happening in our schools, marae, libraries, mobile education buses, community centres and increasingly, in central and local government. 

DECA members might be local initiatives making digital participation accessible, individuals passionate about digital inclusion, organisations that deliver digital skills training, programmes refurbishing laptops, iwi and hapū groups to name a few.

Friends of DECA walk alongside those doing vital frontline digital inclusion work to support and resource. Friends of DECA are companies making a difference, government agencies, local council and boards, social enterprises, academics, Community Foundations, funders and donors. 

DECA Members and Friends of DECA align with the DECA kaupapa and understand that Aotearoa cannot be a leading digital nation without addressing digital inequity.

DECA shines a light on digital inclusion initiatives, identifies gaps, advocates and offers space for innovation and cross-sector collaboration. 

We connect and support the digital inclusion community to be stronger, louder and have greater impact.
