Our Story
Born in 2023 from a vision of a digitally empowered Tāmaki, DIGITRIB3 has evolved from providing basic digital access to pioneering innovative solutions for our community.
Our journey reflects the transformative power of technology:
From lending devices to developing wealth-building platforms
From teaching basic computer skills to creating job-finding hubs
From connecting homes to broadband to establishing community-wide digital marketplaces
Today, we stand at the forefront of digital innovation, committed to ensuring Tāmaki not only participates in the digital economy but leads in shaping its future.
We are a Project Rise Initiative
Project Rise: Empowering Tāmaki Through Community-Led Innovation
Project Rise a groundbreaking initiative developed by Tāmaki Connect Trust in partnership with Tāmaki College, is revolutionising community development in our rohe. Project Rise is not just connecting the college with the local community – it is creating a powerful engine for positive change in Tāmaki.
Our Project Rise kaupapa:
Co-design: We work hand-in-hand with the community to create projects that address real, on-the-ground needs.
Community Governance: Our unique model ensures that every initiative is truly for and by the people of Tāmaki.
Holistic Development: Through education, community projects, and social enterprises, we're driving comprehensive social and economic growth.
Project RISE is more than a programme – it's a movement that is empowering the Tamaki community to take charge of its future.
