The aim of the Australian non-profit organisation Big hART is to bridge the digital divide between marginalized people - primarily Indigenous - and information society. Through highly engaging and powerful multimedia art productions excluded community is empowered through IT integration. The Nuff Stuff project focuses on disadvantaged young people. It enhances new media skills by enabling creative multimedia productions to re-engage in education and to encourage re-entry into the education system.
