The Wellington City Council (WCC) has changed its strategy regarding a free website hosting service for Wellington, and has decided not to fund a continuation of the Wellington Community Net service from 30 June this year.
Without funding from the council, Wellington ICT is sad to announce that we are unable to continue operating WCN from 30 June 2010.
For current WCN members, this means finding a new provider to host their websites by 30 June. Also, at this point WCN is no longer accepting new members.
The transition process is being driven by the Council. To assist community groups with the transition they will provide an online module that will help you identify your web presence needs and guide you through your options. This will be available in March.
The Council has also earmarked $50,000 a year from its grants pool to ensure community groups continue to have a web presence. Priority activities from this fund include training for groups to meet their web needs.
Wellington ICT is committed to its community ICT work and will continue with the e-rider service, the “engage your community” conferences and to provide advice and training on ICT. Further, the Trust will continue its relationship with the Council through capacity building activities for Council City Housing tenants. |

We would like to thank to all our supporters for their generous support of our campaign to retain dedicated funding for Wellington Community NET (WCN) in Wellington City Council’s Long Term Council Community Plan (LTCCP). Wellington ICT used a number of different approaches to try to persuade the Council to reverse its decision to withdraw its ongoing dedicated funding for WCN, a free website hosting service for Wellington-based community groups. We have written letters to the Councillors, made presentations to WCC management, attended Council deliberations and filed an e-petition. |

Informal feedback from people who attended Wellington's e-Engage Your Community Conference on 4 September 2008 indicates the gathering was a great success. We will provide more details about the conference and what we hope to do next once we have completed our review of the many survey forms submitted by attendees. We will will be publishing copies of presentations and adding other information on the EYC website as details come to hand. |
