A Navigation of the Digital Moana:
Empowering South Auckland Pasifika Youth with Emerging Disruptive Technologies (EDTs)
Foreword
If I knew then what I know now…
I would rewrite this report leaning on an analogy of public transport.
Pasifika youth of South Auckland empowered to navigate and reach their destination, conduct their business and return home again. I’d talk about the process of finding a train station nearest your destination and the reasons you want to get off close to your destination; connecting buses, uber and private vehicles; and the efficiency of the service, the ease of use, timetables and the payment systems.
We understand the fundamental need of public transport.
I’d also spend more time exploring pastoral care.
The wrap around solutions that are required for Pasifika youth to eleviate economic, social and technological issues - subsidies for internet and devices, community education highlighting the benefits of technology, access to suitable devices and culturally responsive platforms.
The pastoral care extends far beyond this context.
It’s all about connectivity.

*comment : “During the COVID Pandemic and the lockdowns and fear, a friend and I discussed the issues of children in South Auckland sent home to study on devices and internet that simply did not exist… families did not prioritise technology or education. We discussed the potential for Pasifika Youth in technology and innovation. We resolved to seek funding through the Manatu Taonga Ministry for Culture and Heritage Innovation Fund and the Covid Relief Fund to establish a youth tech hub in Manukau. We worked with the Ministry for over a year…
The Ministry turned our application down. Three times.
Against all the odds… the odds that affect Pasifika Youth. The odds that make it likely that Manatu Taonga will reject your application. The odds that Pasifika Youth will be disadvantaged where they live and feel safe. Against all the odds SACTH (South Auckland Creative & Tech Hub) is thriving, growing and innovating. We found a community support organisation who helped facilitate independent funding. Against the odds.”

Current State Analysis
The Digital Divide in South Auckland – Causes and Consequences
This analysis looks at a digital divide severely impacting the opportunities and advancement of Pasifika youth in South Auckland. The COVID-19 pandemic magnified this existing disparity revealing that many Pasifika families lack consistent internet access and technological resources. (Prosperity in Auckland - Knowledge Auckland, n.d.)
ATEED study provided insight into the prosperity gap across 21 local board areas in Auckland. Photo: Supplied/ATEED
Auckland Tourism, Events and Economic Development, ATEED published a report October 2020 ‘Prosperity in Auckland’ that provides insight to the prosperity gap (Prosperity in Auckland - Knowledge Auckland, n.d.). The report highlights the impact of COVID-19 in “distribution of benefits remains unequal” which may suggest the gap of disparity has increased.
- Prosperity in Auckland - Knowledge Auckland, n.d.
“With the immediate and longer term impact of the COVID-19 pandemic uncertain, it is perhaps worth noting throughout this report where there are areas that may be particularly vulnerable to the negative economic impacts of the virus and where particular attention to maintaining prosperity levels are required to start rebuilding the regional economy in order to help create prosperity for all.
Since the last report, Auckland has continued to benefit from economic growth, but the distribution of those benefits remains unequal across the region. This has shaped our approach in focusing on areas of lower prosperity, notably southern and western Auckland.”
(Prosperity in Auckland - Knowledge Auckland, n.d.) (Wenmoth, 2021)
(Prosperity in Auckland - Knowledge Auckland, n.d.)
Several factors contribute to this divide
Pasifika communities encounter distinct obstacles in navigating the increasingly digital world. These challenges contribute to a widening gap in technological access, skills and the opportunities these provide. (Digital Council of Aotearoa New Zealand , n.d.)
Economic barriers are significant. The high cost of internet connections and digital devices places a disproportionate financial burden on Pasifika households. Immediate necessities such as secure housing, food and healthcare take priority. Technology is a lower consideration even when its benefits are recognised. (Grimes & White, n.d.)
Limited digital literacy also plays a key role where many individuals within Pasifika communities lack the fundamental skills and understanding to confidently navigate online platforms and utilise digital tools. Hesitation and a sense of being overwhelmed by the digital landscape, hindering both adoption and maximising the potential benefits of technology.
(Grimes & White, n.d.)
Cultural factors also influence the relationship Pasifika communities have with technology. A strong emphasis on face-to-face interaction, traditional knowledge systems and community gatherings are core values within Pasifika cultures. (Grimes & White, n.d.) (Vlasov et al., 2022)
These combined factors of economic constraints, limited digital literacy, and cultural considerations create complex barriers to fully engaging with the digital landscape. This can have far reaching consequences for Pasifika communities including reduced access to educational resources, employment opportunities, vital online services and participation in the broader digital economy. Addressing these challenges will require multifaceted solutions that offer affordable access, culturally responsive digital skills training and highlight the ways technology can empower and support Pasifika communities while respecting their values and traditions. (Digital Council of Aotearoa New Zealand , n.d.)
Consequences of the Divide
The digital divide has far reaching consequences for young people, creating significant disadvantages in education, social connection and future employment opportunities. (OECD, n.d.)(Wenmoth, 2021)
Educational barriers are profound. Students without reliable internet access or devices struggle to fully participate in the increasingly digitised learning environment with online classes, assignments and vital educational resources out of reach. (Innovating Education and Educating for Innovation, n.d.)(Wenmoth, 2021)
The digital divide severely restricts employment opportunities. As many jobs require technology skills those without digital fluency face a shrinking pool of accessible careers. This perpetuates cycles of disadvantage, making it more difficult to break into the modern workforce and achieve economic stability. (Tackling the Digital Divide During COVID-19, 2021)(NAKHID et al., n.d.)
