Digital Resource Library

The Social Innovation Hub offers access to basic technological devices - laptops, tablets, cameras, mics etc for short term periods. These resources are available to the public - Rhodes staff and students, Makhanda residents, external organisations, local schools, etc.

Digital access involves more than just physical availability; it also involves the ability to effectively and meaningfully engage with digital tools and resources. There are various dimensions to the digital divide experienced in global South communities, including access to hardware, internet connectivity, digital literacy, and socio-economic factors.

The Digital Resource Library is designed for short-term loans of up to a week. Users can request to use devices by completing the form.

 

Open times: Monday to Friday from 8:30 to 16:00

Address: 5 Prince Alfred Street, Rhodes University, Makhanda, South Africa

Contact: Thandiwe Matyobeni at t.matyobeni@ru.ac.za or 046 603 7227

 

Mobile Hubs

Mobile Hubs are temporary computer labs that can be set up anywhere in Makhanda to assist with workshops and related events.

To arrange a Mobile Hub, users may email a letter to the director of community engagement with the project proposal attached to ruce.ac.za a month before the proposed project would begin. 

 

Workspace

The Social Innovation Hub Workspace at Rhodes University is a public venue for anyone to walk-in and access computers and the internet. The Workspace is occassionally booked to run workshops and training programmes.

This space is a computer lab and workshop room comprising 7 PC workstations with internet, 5 additional laptops, an internet Hotspot for external devices and a whiteboard.

The workspace is also on a backup generator so it is functional during loadshedding.
