Get Online Week 2020 Report

Our 2020 Get Online Week campaign responded to the needs of our communities during the COVID-19 pandemic.

By Good Things Foundation Australia · 07/12/2020

If the last few months have taught us anything, it’s how vital digital skills are to our wellbeing and safety. Yet 2.5 million people in Australia are not online.

This year’s campaign responded to the needs of our communities during the COVID-19 pandemic. We supported people to connect with friends and family, stay safe online, learn how to better use their devices, find reliable health information and apply for work online.

Over 700 community organisations around Australia held online or COVID-Safe face-to-face events for people with low digital skills. We believe everyone deserves the opportunity to safely participate in our digital world and no one should be left behind.
