Digital Empowerment

In a nation with over 6,50,000 villages and where more than half of its populace resides in rural areas, the journey towards digital inclusion poses significant challenges. Despite remarkable economic progress, many rural communities remain isolated and underserved. However, there's a palpable aspiration among rural Indians to embrace the modern Digital India narrative. Yet, the last-mile delivery of technology remains a formidable hurdle due to low technology literacy rates among rural citizens.

Recognizing the critical importance of digital literacy in India's populous and diverse landscape, the Digital Empowerment Initiative by Indian Council for Industries and Academia Connect (ICIAC) aims to bridge this gap. By leveraging AI and mobile technologies, this initiative seeks to empower individuals in rural communities with essential digital skills for education, healthcare, citizen services, and economic participation. Through strategic partnerships and innovative programs, ICIAC endeavors to democratize access to information and education, fostering inclusive growth and propelling India towards its vision of a fully connected knowledge economy. As a pioneering force in technology education, ICIAC is committed to bringing the benefits of digital literacy to every corner of the nation, aligning with the transformative goals of the Digital India vision.
