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,which is alarmingly low (1 % approx) in 70% areas of the country.
Through the established Computer training center , recently 20 girls have completed their certification from AWARD through a ceremony which took place in Faisalabad. They now aim to look for better opportunities and have ensured to improve their skill. AWARD also aim to open up more computer literacy centers in the rural areas of Punjab to make digital literacy common among the rural communites especially women. 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 thus 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, which is 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.
