Mobilink equips marginalised youth

KARACHI: Mobilink has successfully completed its nationwide ‘ICT Enhancement Program’ in partnership with Pakistan Center for Philanthropy (PCP), a statement said on Saturday.

Under the program, Mobilink has set up six state-of-the-art ICT labs in its partner schools to ensure youth from marginalised communities are equipped to thrive in the fast-evolving digital economy, it said.

This initiative, launched five months ago, saw Mobilink and PCP join hands to identify schools in need of ICT labs, with PCP being made responsible for ensuring that the recipients are serving marginalised social classes.

PCP’s involvement also made the process transparent and impartial. The program will now reach out to almost 3500 deserving students of primary and secondary schools operating in rural and peri-urban areas every six month.
