Great South Coast councilsCorangamite Shire, Warrnambool City & Moyne Shire, are beginning the development of a Regional Digital Strategy in consultation and collaboration with local community.
The Strategy encourages innovation and leverages digital technologies to enhance liveability, sustainability, connectivity, and the overall productivity of the region.
For business, digital technology is all about the creation of new jobs, the decline of others due to automation, the changing nature of how people work, and the increasing opportunities found on a global scale.
But for cities, a digital region encourages innovation within the community and uses digital solutions to manage services and infrastructure effectively.
Ultimately it encourages improved wellbeing, enhanced environmental outcomes and a thriving local economy.
The Councils are currently seeking feedback, ideas, and insights to help shape the priorities and directions of the Strategy, through the form of a survey.
This survey aims to obtain views, ideas and insights regarding the Regional Digital Strategy for the City of Warrnambool and Shire of Moyne and Corangamite.
Community input will help shape the priorities and directions of the Strategy, and ensure it meets the needs and addresses the concerns of individual communities as well as the broader region.
The survey will close on 15 May 2022 and can be completed here.
