A wonderful privilege to laugh & talanoa w/ Dr Tarisi & my father via her Facebook Live page. On connections to #Yawe, multi-cultural heritage, honouring family, claiming home and how this project makes a space for enabling #Pacific voices.

Great message: “Leave no one behind” in this latest video from the @digitalcouncil_
#DigitalInclusionNZ #DigitalLeadership – at Wellington City, New Zealand
It's hard to sound smart or cool when you follow @ColinGavaghan who not only is extremely smart, but also has an unfair accent advantage. That aside, this gives an idea of who's on the @digitalcouncil_ & what we're doing, tho it's missing @kendallflutey youtube.com/watch?v=snyDEy7D…

“So despite the fact that we’ve got this infrastructure, there is a group of people who are excluded from being online simply due to the fact that they can’t afford that connectivity. And then that upsets me, in a way, that’s such a shame.” — Andrew Cushen, InternetNZ – at Wellington City, New Zealand
“Look at the COVID, how much of that essential information was distributed via the Internet. It was a national emergency, everyone had to understand the message... Internet access was essential” Andrew Cushen, engagement director #DigitalInclusionNZ.
