ourporirua.com aims to establish Porirua as a ‘Digital City’. It is designed to be an ongoing technology resource for the Porirua community, to assist businesses to build on assets and services already in place and work with people to help get what they need.

Portal Porirua has the capacity to constantly review new technological developments and ideally, will make it easier for residents and visitors to find out what is going throughout the community.

Portal Porirua has the potential to be used for workforce development. With webhosting features and blogs, many people in the community have the opportunity to acquire new skills by using the community portal as an interactive, hands-on learning tool.

This work is supported through the Government’s Community Partnership Fund (CPF).
