Making Links will:

  • Bring the community sector together to access resources, training and services, and to share ideas, skills and creative applications of technology.
  • Explore the possibilities ICTs generate for communities whose voices have been marginalised and excluded from the mainstream.
  • Showcase innovative, grass roots ICT initiatives in community cultural development, outreach, and e-learning.
  • Build and develop networks amongst workers and activists interested in how ICT can be used to support social justice.
