> The Digital Communities category is open to political, social and  
> cultural projects, initiatives, groups and scenes from all over the  
> world that display contentious commitment in coming up with smart,  
> successful ways of deploying digital technologies to solve social  
> problems. Particular emphasis is placed on a project's degree of  
> community innovation, its sustainability and its use of technology  
> in a way that makes good sense and is attuned to the needs of the  
> people meant to benefit from it. Digital Communities projects  
> should make it easier for people to access technology, networks and  
> the Digital Commons.
