Why we are campaigning for connectivity as everyday infrastructure
Access to affordable, reliable internet underpins work, learning, health information, and participation in public life.
Reliable connectivity is no longer a niche luxury: it shapes whether people can apply for jobs, attend medical appointments remotely where offered, follow coursework, and stay in touch with family and friends.
This campaign argues that Scotland should treat affordable, dignified access as part of the baseline expectations we have for housing, transport, and utilities—while celebrating community-led models that show what is possible when people organise around shared infrastructure.
