ICT For Job Creation Project

Information and communication technologies (ICTs) flood every aspect of our lives; from most rural and urban parts of the world, and in every community almost every small to large organization needs people with computer skills for data analysis, secretarial services (like printing, binding, laminating, photocopying, typing), computer repairs, networking, programming and software and hardware installations. The advancement of ICTs has brought new opportunities for both knowledge sharing and information gathering for both women and men. Therefore this project intends to reach the unconnected adolescents, families, and populations to better understand their needs and challenges through ICT such that they can provide unlimited opportunities for economic development and social engagement through new innovative thinking and tools.
