Attending to capacity means getting people access to the tools they need, but also developing their skills to use tools effectively.
Communities need to consider multiple issues: How has technology ruptured traditional information flows? How has technology
introduced powerful new forms of access? What does it take to empower individual citizens to be full and effective participants
in the new world of information creation and dissemination? The Commission seeks effective use of existing technologies, and
education at all levels and in multiple settings that will enable people to be more effective producers and consumers of information.
