Why Engage with Us?
While many of us enjoy a great lifestyle, hundreds of millions of people around the world are denied the opportunity to get educated so that they can earn a living wage and improve their lives. Now, with the prevalence of digital technology, we can reach these disadvantaged communities with the right educational tools, in their homes, via smartphones. Why should the next half billion mobile first internet users use smartphones for entertainment and social media alone? Why not enable them to gain access to vital education that can transform their lives through these devices?
- We leverage digital technology to reach the remotest of the world; bridge the gap between the developed and developing world
- We use regionally nuanced approach with understanding of the local context with a unique model of "For the community by the community"
- We follow a beneficiary obsessed approach with free, direct, simple smartphone based access anytime anywhere
