Digital Inclusion of Marginalized Seniors: Access to health care information

This project will focus on the access and adoption areas of digital inclusion. Access research will focus on the barriers faced by seniors from further marginalized groups in their attempts to become digitally literate. The three marginalized groups being researched are Indigenous, immigrant, and rural seniors, and their digital literacy in relation to health care information is the focus. Findings from this research will then be carried into adoption research, which will focus on how the aforementioned barriers impact their ability to become digitally literate.
