With evidence that there is an increasingly mobile, regionally based workforce in Australia (‘e-changers’), more needs to be understood about digital access, affordability and skills for this group. This project will examine the telecommunications needs of consumers and small businesses engaged in remote work in a number of locations outside large cities and traditional office settings. Online businesses or self-employed workers in the digital economy will also be a focus.
