SINDUR: Objetives

The purpose of the project SINDUR lies in studying the
effects and impacts of the Information Society on the
urban and rural development of peripheral regions in order
to examine the citizens’ quality of life and promote the
spreading of the Information and Communication
Technologies as tools of social intervention to face the
phenomenon of social and territorial exclusion known as
the “Digital Divide”. It is about researching –from a social
point of view- the “unconnected” communities and
territories in the Information Society.




Infobrion.com was conceived as a strategy of social
intervention to overcome the “Digital Divide”.
It aims at fostering social, economic and cultural
development in the municipality of Brión by spreading the
new Information and Communication Technologies.
It also aims at promoting the recovery of its historic
memory and the appreciation of popular culture within the
context of the Information Society, boosting the creation
of a local virtual community and promoting the use and
spreading of the New Information and Communication
Technologies as tools and channels of knowledge,
information and learning.

Statistics
The programmes Brión People, Cyber Education and Immersion in the
Information Society make InfoBrion.com into a very successful initiative.
The success that this web page is enjoying in the local community can be
seen in its statistics. Although the municipality of Brión has a population of
almost 7,000 people, its reference web page -www.infobrion.com- had
around 1,800 different visitors in February 2005, who surfed through over
160,000 pages.
