Closing the Digital Divide in Border Communities

This video was created as part of a training program hosted by the Equity in Policy Institute out of the UNM TREE Center. This video was one of six community partnership teams in New Mexico, each of which learned how to make a digital story and policy brief on different topics. This video story is about the digital divide in a border community. The policy focus underscores the idea that access to the internet, and the knowledge to use it, should not be defined by where you live and who you are.

The team that helped make this video hopes it will be useful in statewide efforts to improve Digital Opportunities in New Mexico. This video was made with thanks to many including:

Luce Rubio, Doña Ana County
Anabel Canchola, Doña Ana County HHS Department
Carmen Bell, Alma de Arte Student and Youth leader
Javier Gandara, Doña Ana Community College
Maria Chaparro, La Union, community leader
Cruz Saenz, Sunland Park, community leader
Michelle Valverde, LAB Learning Action Buffet/Manager & Facilitator
