In rural areas of Faisalabad,64 % males are literate, compared to only 40% females (UNESCO Report).The School dropout percentage in these districts is 18-22 % which means that every 4th child (boy or girl) is a school dropout.Majority of the Government schools in the rural areas do not offer computer education or any modern program for primary and middle education.So even if a girl reaches to this this level of school education she is not been taught about it.
The project has been designed to provide computer literacy (10 months of training) to the poor and school dropout girls of District Faisalabad to meet current trends.
