AUSTRALIA'S DIGITAL DIVIDE
“Australia's digital divide means
2.8 million people remain 'highly excluded' from internet access.”
Erin Parke, national regional social affairs reporter, ABC
1 in every 4 Australians are without adequate access to the internet and are considered ‘digitally excluded’. 11 per cent of Australians are ‘highly excluded’ from access. (Australian Digital Inclusion Index, 2021).
25% of Australians don't have
effective access to the internet.
It's a surprising statistic and one that shouldn't be true for a country like ours, but this is reality for many people and worth knowing for your marketing strategy.
That's a big market open to receiving print media.
PEOPLE LOVE GETTING MAIL,
ESPECIALLY IF IT HAS THEIR NAME ON IT.
So who are these people getting left out of the digital world? According to Good Things Foundation, they are those living in some regional areas, people with lower incomes and education, people aged over 65, people with a disability, and in a surprising find in the ADII 2021 report - Australian women are more digitally excluded than men.
