Delivering Digital Inclusion: Tackling Social Exclusion Through Technology

On 9 December 2009 Anna Bradley, Chair of the Communications Consumer Panel, spoke at the Inside Government event: Delivering Digital Inclusion: Tackling Social Exclusion Through Technology. Her speech covered:

  • The growing importance of, and focus on, digital participation;
  • The importance of starting with the experiences and needs of consumers and citizens and the framework for digital inclusion and participation that the Panel is developing, which does just that;
  • The link between improving online public services and promoting digital inclusion by providing a motivation for getting online; and
  • Implementing, and ensuring the ongoing relevance of, the universal broadband commitment.
