Get Online Week

Get Online Week 19-25 October 2020

The internet has the power to increase employability, reduce isolation and improve health and wellbeing, but too many people are still missing out.

Currently there are 2.5 million Australian’s who are not online, and 4 million people have limited digital skills.

Get Online Week is an annual campaign that brings digital inclusion to national attention. Every October, thousands of events take place across Australia and the UK supporting people to learn essential digital skills.

In 2019, Get Online Week events were held in every state and territory across Australia. From Shark Bay in WA to Ceduna in SA, up to Cloncurry in QLD and down to Bruny Island in TAS. 26,000 people attended a local Get Online Week event to learn a new skill in a friendly, supported and trusted environment.

This year, whether it’s an online campaign or held in physical spaces, Get Online Week will take place from the 19-25 of October 2020.

We’ll have more information soon about how you can get involved and help ensure no one in Australia is left behind. If you’d like to find out more, contact admin@nhwa.com.au.
