International Day of Education

 Towards, International Day of Education 2021. The right to education is enshrined in article 26 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The declaration calls for free and compulsory elementary education. The Convention on the Rights of the Child, adopted in 1989, goes further to stipulate that countries shall make higher education accessible to all. When it adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, the international community recognized and urged that education is essential for the success of all 17 of its goals.

Despite of other areas, we also focused on raising awareness and providing training on ICT matters to young girls in the villages. Scaring thing is, among of those young girls, it was their first time to touch computer, and others it was their first time to see it. But they got inspired to learn more on ICT issues and highly on how it can help them in their daily issues for instances, to simplify works, promote their businesses, get easily informed on different issues and also entertain them. In Urban areas people are way more aware of ICT than in rural areas , and as long as the world is changing to digital one and higher tec...
