Dr Genevieve Bell's, 15th Adelaide Thinker in Residence, task was to help identify a set of strategic directions and opportunities for all South Australians with regard to new digital technologies. She travelled extensively throughout South Australia and investigated how we use technology today, and how we might use it in the future.

In this report, Dr Bell has identified a bold vision and strategies for effective engagement with technology. She provides advice on the use of technology and digital literacy in education, citizenship and training, and for the development of a robust, digital economy.

Recommendations are included in the following four areas:

  • Broadbanding the State - Infrastructure Development
  • Switching on the State - Capacity Building
  • Strong Communities - Community Engagement
  • South Australia's Future - Growth and Innovation
