In a bid to bridge the digital divide and empower the next generation of tech-savvy individuals, ASUS, a leading technology company, has partnered with VIDYA, a non-profit organization, to launch a comprehensive digital literacy program for over 6,000 students from underprivileged backgrounds in Western India. This ambitious initiative aims to equip students from Grade 1 to 10, as well as youth, with essential digital skills and expertise, thereby preparing them for the rapidly evolving digital landscape.
The digital literacy program, designed specifically for the marginalized regions of Western India, will focus on interactive and project-based learning, using an age-appropriate curriculum. This innovative approach will not only make the learning experience engaging and enjoyable for the students but also help them develop a strong foundation in digital literacy.
The program is a significant step forward in ASUS’s efforts to promote digital inclusion and bridge the gap between the digitally enabled and the digitally excluded. By partnering with VIDYA, ASUS aims to leverage the non-profit organization’s expertise in education and community development to make a meaningful impact on the lives of underprivileged students.
