Digital Enablement

Connectivity creates access. Digital enablement turns access into opportunity.

Digital enablement is about helping people, businesses, organisations and communities build the confidence and capacity to adopt and use technology effectively.

It means understanding the barriers that can prevent adoption, addressing different needs and levels of digital capability, and creating the conditions that allow everyone to participate in an increasingly digital economy and society.

Volume 2 of the Connected Saskatchewan Toolkit: Digital Enablement helps communities move from being digitally ready to putting technology to work. It explores opportunities to:

  • Adopt and use technology to improve quality of life and community wellbeing
  • Build awareness of what technology can make possible
  • Strengthen socio-economic performance through effective technology use
  • Identify and overcome barriers to digital adoption and participation
  • Build digital capacity across communities, businesses and sectors
  • Create inclusive digital communities where more people can participate and benefit

Digital enablement is where connectivity becomes capability, and capability becomes opportunity.
