Digital Literacy & Cyber Safety Program
Key Milestones Achieved
HUM’s ‘Digital Literacy and Cyber Safety Project’ lies within the framework of ‘Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan’. It extends computer education to narrow the digital divide between rural and urban areas. Our curriculum places a strong emphasis on cyber safety. Through regular assessments – baseline, endline, and monthly evaluations – we ensure sustained progress in digital literacy.
Our skilled and experienced computer trainers play a pivotal role in this initiative. They bring in the highest levels of expertise and guidance to empower students in rural Uttarakhand. Alongside, we’re actively involved in the solar electrification of schools and the establishment of smart classrooms in border states.
This initiative aims to bridge the gaps in education and digital literacy in these areas with 110 free schools. Out of these, 84 schools are situated in crucial border regions. With the help of our qualified computer trainers, HUM strives to create a digitally empowered and secure future for all.
Digital Literacy & Tally Training Programs in Prisons
The installation of Tally Accounting System in 37 prison systems, coupled with specialized training for instructors by NIELIT, underscores our commitment to enhance the capabilities of inmates and trainers alike.
Digital Sathi Program
Today Mobile phones are a must for students who are studying in schools or colleges because of the new world pandemic, as their academic curricula are to be started or continued online, not everyone can afford a laptop or a computer, so a mobile being a cheaper alternative takes the space for the computer in the online lecture. Hundreds of poor children were forced to drop out of education due to lack of a digital device. The Art of Living and IAHV took an initiative to provide a basic smartphone to underprivileged students in board and senior classes. On 5th January, 2022, International Association for Human Values and Art of Living Himachal donated 1500 smart phones to the underprivileged children of the Government schools in Himachal. On this occasion Chief Minister Sh. Jai Ram Thakur handed over Smart Phones to the students of various schools for online education at his Office in Shimla the Smartphones were also distributed at each district by the Diet principals to the students in need.
