We always try to make a difference…
We can and do change people’s lives!
We partner with local communities to deliver our digital inclusion programmes. Our learners better their education, find work, easily access the services and products they want, manage their health, social and community participation.
Our Guiding Principles
We strive to make a meaningful difference in people’s lives by partnering with local communities to deliver impactful digital inclusion programmes
Our Vision
Ka taea e tātou katoa o Aotearoa ngā kaha matihiko ki te whai wāhi i te< Ao.
Everyone in Aotearoa has the digital capabilities to fully participate in the world
This is the Katoa Connect Trust’s bicultural foundational framework. It is a convincing and relevant strategic framework which brings our organisation alive.

Our Programmes
Each programme is designed with flexibility in mind, accommodating various devices such as laptops and tablets. We understand that every learner is unique, and we customise our offerings to ensure relevance and accessibility. Every participant receives a digital device and a subsidised internet connection, empowering them to navigate the digital landscape confidently.
We initiate and lead digital inclusion programmes that contribute to Aotearoa New Zealand’s digital access, literacy, skills and motivation.
We have a range of programmes to suit the different needs of our different learners. Some use a Chromebook laptop, others are more comfortable with a tablet.
Some groups have specific needs and we design and can tailor programmes to suit a range of needs and communities so the learning is relevant to the learners.
Whatever the programme is, we provide our learners with a digital device and an subsidised internet connection, so they can confidently and safely use them in their day-to-day life.
Our Impact
Together, we are building a digitally inclusive Aotearoa, ensuring that everyone has the tools and support they need to succeed.
The facilitator is dedicated to teaching, and the seniors are working hard to learn.
