73% of Belgian households now have access to the Internet, a 20% increase vs 2006 (source: Eurostat).

We want to enable as many people as possible to benefit from modern technologies, and we adopted appropriate strategies for different kind of divide:

• Age and Disability: We aim to offer devices adapted to the needs of elderly and disabled people. The Emporia, for-example, is a simple and user-friendly mobile phone, with a bright and easy-to-read screen, large keys, and a powerful loudspeaker.
• Health:  For children with chronic disease or a long illness, Bednet and Take Off create a virtual network allowing them to stay in contact with their teacher and classmates. We donate the internet connectivity between class­rooms and homes or hospitals, in addi­tion to financial support. In 2010, some 263 children benefited from these solu­tions (43% increase vs last year).
• Improving ICT skills: We provided 170.000 hours of ICT training, granted 766 free PCs to 203 schools and associations. In 2010, we sold some 10.000 Start2surf packages, including one day of basic training on “how to use a PC”.
