This study of digital inclusion among the rural poor examines how residents of remote mountain communities in Brazil perceive the use of information and communication technologies (ICTs). It analyzes social factors that impact ICT appropriation and the behaviors and attitudes that advance digital literacy among marginalized rural populations. The authors conducted factor analysis and logistic regressions to survey data collected. Results confirm the presence of a gender divide in ICT adoption. Women were more likely to perceive that ICT use brings social benefits to the community, and considered that ICTs provide better opportunities for the young.Este estudio sobre inclusion digital entre los pobres en comunidades rurales examina como es que los residentes de comunidades serranas remotas en Brasil perciben el uso de la las tecnologias de la informacion y comunicacion (TICs).
