NSW North Coast TAFE
Yindiri, Gurrang, Lorna and John attended the Project Champions Workshop that was held at Cairns, August 2006.
Among the participants were members from the North Coast Computer Project and NSW North Coast TAFE.
Yamba e-Hub: Bernie, Beth, Francine & Luke
Many of the workshop participants were very interested in our project, among these was Bernie Francis. Bernie, Elsdon, Francine and Roy talked about the use of e-Hubs as ways for Indigenous Australians accessing computers and as tools for engagement and learning.
At Charles Darwin University (CDU) we are looking at ways to support the running and development of micro-business in very remote communities.
We have also been looking at ways to improving both the quality of power supplies to computers, and the reliability and connectivity to the internet. While CDU has a good idea of what needs to be done, Bernie has offered his assistance by working with his networks to cost a trial of what CDU thinks is a hardware solution.
