La Trobe University’s Digital Innovation Hub in partnership with NBNCo presents an expert panel to deliver an in-depth discussion on digital social inequity in Public Housing.

The panel will cover how poor broadband access has impacted the problem of digital social inequity and how it has manifested, ways in which the problem has played out for ethnically diverse communities and how the problem is being addressed by NBNCo and the local government. After this discussion, we welcome you, the audience, to contribute to the conversation.
