Digital mentors: the heart of the digital revolution (summary report)

Digital mentors are at the frontline of efforts to improve the digital skills, literacy and inclusion of Australians. Most are volunteers, and many have undertaken their own journey to improve their digital participation. With approximately 1 million volunteer hours offered through the Australian Seniors Computer Clubs Association (ASCCA) since it began in August 1998, for example, we can confidently say that digital mentors are the heart of the digital revolution. This report provides a summary and evaluation of the Digital Mentors: The Heart of the Digital Revolution forum held in Sydney on 26 July, 2019.
