Connecting & supporting those working towards digital equity in the Waitaha region, in partnership with Digital Equity Coalition Aotearoa (DECA) and Ako Ōtautahi.

Waitaha Digital Equity Network (WDEN) brings together changemakers, organisations, and communities across Ōtautahi Christchurch to address digital inequities. By ensuring everyone has access to the tools, skills, and resources needed to thrive in a digital world, WDEN fosters inclusion and innovation. From convening stakeholders to amplifying community-led initiatives, the network empowers learners and enables equitable participation in our connected society.

But this is not a journey we can undertake alone. The future of digital excellence in Aotearoa requires all of us-educators, tech professionals, community leaders, and everyday Kiwis-working together to ensure that no one is left behind. Is there a role you can play? Whether it’s volunteering, donating, or simply spreading the word, your involvement could be the key to making this vision a reality.

Join us in building a digital future where every child can succeed. Together, we can make digital excellence more than a dream—we can make it our reality.
