Media Release: Study aims to learn from eNetworks in enterprising communities

THE value of online networking between community groups will be at the heart of a new study, looking at opportunities to improve the long-term sustainability of the voluntary and social enterprise sector throughout the Highlands and Islands.

The study, commissioned by Highlands and Islands Enterprise (HIE) and delivered in partnership with Skye and Lochalsh Council for Voluntary Organisations (SLCVO), is to be undertaken by Julie MacLeod of MacLeod Research Ltd.

The research will focus on the ways that community groups in Skye and Raasay exchange information, share knowledge and free up valuable resources – using technologies such as email and video-conferencing.
