Bridging the Digital Divide

The Digital Divide refers to any inequalities between groups, broadly construed, in terms of access to, use of, or knowledge of information and communication technologies. The digital divide in the United States (and other countries) refers to inequalities between individuals, households, businesses, and geographic areas at different socioeconomic and other demographic levels, while the Global digital divide designates countries as the units of analysis and examines the divide between developing and developed countries on an international scale.

Bridging the Digital Divide

In parts of the world, less than 1 in every 1,000 people have access to a computer compared to nearly 600 in every 1,000 in the developed world. For this reason, Internet Marketing Seminars and Consultants has partnered with local and national social service agencies to undertake the effort of bridging the digital divide between communities of color, the poor, small businesses and community development agencies.

Our branded program, "Pick One, Learn One and Teach One," is meant to inspire those that learn skills on the computer to spread their knowledge to others.
