Digital Divide
Unbounded Futures is dedicated to providing kids from the ages of 6-12 with another choice, besides poverty, by empowering them through education.
In today’s rapidly digitizing educational landscape, the digital divide poses a formidable challenge. The widening gap in digital access among communities, businesses, and regions threatens to amplify educational and socioeconomic inequalities. The digital divide transcends mere access to technology, encapsulating affordability, service quality, digital literacy, and the proficiency to harness technology effectively. This global disparity is stark between developed and developing nations, across socioeconomic strata, and between urban and rural communities, influencing educational access, economic prospects, and healthcare services.
Unbounded Futures recognizes the urgency to mitigate this divide. Our mission is to democratize digital content availability, particularly in under-resourced and rural areas, fostering digital literacy and skills among youth. Our collaborative venture with the Try to Fight Foundation, the Digi-Rickshaw, propels this mission forward.
Digi-Rickshaw is a mobile, technology-equipped classroom that delivers educational opportunities directly to the heart of high-poverty and marginalized neighborhoods. This eco-friendly, energy-efficient E-Rickshaw comes equipped with state-of-the-art technology such as LED screens for displaying educational content, empowering children with knowledge at their doorstep.
