Green PC is part of Infoxchange Australia's strategy to bridge the digital divide. This strategy has a number of community building elements including, empowerment through access to the new technologies, providing sustainable employment and educational opportunities for the long-term unemployed while also addressing environmental issues through recycling of discarded computer hardware. Our strategy moves beyond the traditional solution of establishing common facilities through which low income and disadvantaged people and communities share computers, and has a vision of making a computer available in every person's house, irrespective of income status. Only through such a plan can we develop a more equitable and just society as we move into a world that is progressively more dependant on technology, communication and access to information. To date we have employed over 30 people, the majority of whom have been long-term unemployed, and established a large workshop facility with a huge storage area. Collaboration of this type between the Government, Corporate and Community sectors will ensure that our democratic rights and civil responsibilities are met in the information age.
