How can technology help people overcome barriers to accessing key online services?

The procurement contact named on the official notice.

Despite the success of programmes such as Connecting Scotland, many individuals still struggle to access essential services because of low digital skills, limited confidence, or a lack of access to devices and connectivity.

This Challenge seeks innovative, user-centred solutions that focus on people who may have some access to devices or connectivity but face barriers in using digital services safely and effectively.

Proposals should address varied user needs, helping individuals engage with services including financial tools, education and employment.

Connectivity and devices matter - but skills and confidence are critical to unlocking meaningful digital inclusion.
