CONNECTING COMMUNITIES ? POP-UP TRAINING SERVICE

CARLOW COUNTY DEVELOPMENT PARTNERSHIP CLG

realise their social and economic potential. We achieve our corporate
purpose by researching, designing and delivering high impact social,

INTRODUCTION

The Connecting Communities project seeks to address the digital divide
in Carlow. A digital divide is best summarised as the gap between
?the haves and have-nots?. Like every developed nation, Ireland is
going through a process of disruptive technological change. Whilst
this change brings welcome investment and opportunity, it also
highlights the gap between the digitally connected and the rest of the
population. The digitally connected cohort is ahead of the curve and
well positioned to catch the next wave of change ? which is referred
to as the ?Fourth Industrial Revolution by the world Economic Forum.
With **Apply on the website**% of the Irish population excluded from
an increasingly digital society because of socio-economic reasons
(Bridging the Gap ? Irelands Digital Divide. Accenture Report
**Apply on the website**), there is a risk that the ?digitally
disengaged? section of society risks further isolation as
communication and social interaction continue to move on line e.g.,
Government services, professional services, internet banking and
online shopping.

Carlow County Development Partnership has a proven track record of
delivering supports and services to those experiencing social and/or
economic disadvantage. In response to research findings and policy
direction, we now want to focus on building a client-centred response
to addressing the digital divide in Carlow.

The Connecting Communities has two strands namely;

* Establishing a pop-up training service
* Establishing domestic digital hubs in up to **Apply on the
website** private residential houses.

This tender focuses on establishing a pop-up training service only.
