This project aims to improve the comuputer literacy among the unskilled , school and college drop out girls in the marginalized rural and semi urban areas of faisalabad and muzaffargarh which is alarmingly low (1 % approx) in 70% areas of the country.
Through the established Computer training center , so far 135 girls have completed their certification and now aim to look for better opportunities. AWARD also aimsd to open up more computer literacy centers in the rural areas of Punjab to make digital literacy common among the rural communites. This could only be possible if the technology will be exposed to the community.
Unfortunately, the project hasnt garnered the desired donations so far in the recent quarters, the amount collected this far is not sufficient to initate new digital learning centers in the areas. However through some fundraising from other sources, AWARD Pakistan has managed to initiate its first Computer Literacy Center in Faisalabad and it has started working to improve the skill based learning among the poor marginalized girls in District Faisalabad.
We request all our supporters to support this project and help women learn computer literacy for better future.
