ESTABLISHING
SPEYSIDE COMMUNITY WEB
The European
Regional Development Fund made it possible for The Moray Council
to supply equipment to be used by local communities to create
a Community Web in their area. The task to establish 6 Community
Web Groups in the Objective 1 area by May 1999 commenced with
founding of the Speyside Community Web based at Aberlour Library.
INTRODUCTION TO THE COMMUNITY WEB PROJECT
As part
of European Development Objective 1 Funding, the Western part
of Moray received financial assistance for the sustainable development
of rural areas. The funding was used to employ modern technology
to help strengthen communities, develop people skills through
training and aid business development.
European Regional Development Funding supports businesses of
all sizes in all sectors to enhance competitiveness and improve
operational efficiency for business growth and development.
PROJECT
AIMS
The project
aimed to develop businesses and communities by utilising Community
Web Groups and by using internet technologies. It is useful for
increasing the availability of training and enhancing employment
prospects to improve the quality of life for those in rural areas
and to contribute to economic stability in the area of Moray.
