Funded Activity Summary

Farm Women, Networks and ICTs. Considerable national funds have been spent on brining rural Australians online. In the previous year over half of those living in non-metropolitan Australian accessed the internet. However, little is known about how new technologies are being integrated into the daily lives of rural people. This research moves from quantifying technology take-up in rural Australia and describing the possibilities of what new technologies may offer rural people, to analysing and critiquing the extent to which these possibilities are being realised. It will inform policy on rural and regional technology access and use.
